BIG FISH

Karina Montgomery said "We're all accustomed toTim Burton making quirky, interesting movies. Well, this movie is quirky and interesting, but yet, if you didn't know it was Tim Burton, you never would guess it, besides the meticulous construction of the fictional world inside the head of hero Ed Bloom. But Burton's usual skill with whimsy and spirit is dampened in this film; the surreality has no heart, no aim. The unfocused quality of the story gives me pause. I tried to find meaning within the methods of the intricate web of back stories and meandering tall tales and apply them to the present-day plot line involving Bill Crudup. Perhaps we are supposed to follow Crudup's character's growth and discovery ourselves, but much of the time I felt locked out. It's a romantic fiction, an adventure, and a quirky character comedy, with a warm, glowing center, but it takes far more than three licks to get to the center of this treat.yes I'm agree with author but I like comedy part and also I confused because many parts in different places but almost in the same time.
