Synopsis:
In the year 1752, Joshua and Naomi Collins, with young son Barnabas, set sail from Liverpool, England to start a new life in America. But even an ocean was not enough to escape the mysterious curse that has plagued their family. Two decades pass and Barnabas (Johnny Depp) has the world at his feet-or at least the town of Collinsport, Maine. The master of Collinwood Manor, Barnabas is rich, powerful and an inveterate playboy...until he makes the grave mistake of breaking the heart of Angelique Bouchard (Eva Green). A witch, in every sense of the word, Angelique dooms him to a fate worse than death: turning him into a vampire, and then burying him alive. Two centuries later, Barnabas is inadvertently freed from his tomb and emerges into the very changed world of 1972. He returns to Collinwood Manor to find that his once-grand estate has fallen into ruin. The dysfunctional remnants of the Collins family have fared little better, each harboring their own dark secrets. Matriarch Elizabeth Collins Stoddard (Michelle Pfeiffer) has called upon live-in psychiatrist, Dr. Julia Hoffman (Helena Bonham Carter), to help with her family troubles. Also residing in the manor is Elizabeth's ne'er-do-well brother, Roger Collins, (Jonny Lee Miller); her rebellious teenage daughter Carolyn Stoddard (Chloe Moretz); and Roger's precocious 10-year-old son, David Collins (Gulliver McGrath). The mystery extends beyond the family, to caretaker Willie Loomis, played by Jackie Earle Haley, and David's new nanny, Victoria Winters, played by Bella Heathcote.

My Comments: Watch this movie if you watched The Twilight Saga and I would say that this movie is better than Twilight Saga. It was a great vampire movie so far and with director Tim Burton directing, it will be one the good movie so far this year around. This movie is not the best but enough to make its audience felt suspense and eager to know what is the conclusion of the movie. Starring the famous Johnny Depp as the Barnabas Vampire, you will not felt boring but this vampire is fulled of jokes and an old fashioned vampire as well. The storyline was well plotted and it's good and not the best as I said earlier. You may guess what is going to happen but in between there's a lot of mysteries that is unsolved and you will be amazed by the effects as well. There's a digital 2D format as well as the normal format. I would recommend you to watch this movie if you are a vampire fan (if you watched Twilight Saga) before and I would like you to compare which one is good but I would give my vote to this one. Enjoy! MY RATING: 4/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 4/5
