“It is truth, but truth is not always appearance.”
The man in the trenchcoat and fedora was not cynical, though the accusation came often. He simply knew things. He knew what the woman wanted—her canted veil and tailored suit could not hide the baseness of her motives. And he knew what the other man wanted—money and power and control and moral impunity, in no particular order but in undiluted quantity. No, the man in the trenchcoat and fedora was not cynical—he had a moral code, and he lived by it, but it reflected the world around him. He would work to make that world a little bit better, for a little bit better was all he…
A richly designed, pervasively atmospheric, and, thanks to its leading man, somewhat whimsical horror film, Tim Burton's "Sleepy Hollow" is a blustery, gory, and entertaining piece of work. With its superbly rendered and shot sets and landscapes, the film is a fine-looking chiller with an overarching sense of delightful wickedness.
A post-colonial police procedural that finds a city constable sent to rural New York to investigate a series of murders, "Sleepy Hollow" puts a contemporary spin on Washington Irving's classic tale. The film follows on Johnny Depp's committed yet squeamish investigator as he thumbs through witchcraft, superstition, and Revolutionary War-era myth on his way to the truth. Eventually, he, too, is hunted by the legendary, Hessian horseman.

Christopher Walken has literally 3 lines in this film...
1. NAAAAHH!
2. WAAAAHH!
and who could forget...
3. RAAAAHH!
Would you believe as crazy as he is in this film, he's been crazier on and off film?
Typical good looking Butonesque ode to the old Hammer horror movies.
Great fun.

Tim Burton en plena forma, con un guión más efectista que efectivo el estilo burtoniano encaja a la perfección con la historia.
tim burton movies slap
i was a little bored from time to time tho but that was my fault
Love this dark film nior flick from Burton... Its one of the better ones.... Must see dark horror fairytale.... Oh and Johnny shines in it...
i’m 23 and still very afraid to watch a “scary” movie, so i kept this one for the very last, and after watching it i can confess it scared me a little.
the film has its weak points, it’s hard to keep track on everything that’s happening and it’s even harder to figure out what happening sometimes.
the film has stronger points as well, JOHNNY DEPP can give dramatic without weird and lead an entire movie without any gimmicks or tricks.
EMMANUEL LUBESKI’s cinematography and RICK HEINRICHS’s production design really blow your mind, they create this amazingly familiar but fantastic place.
in a SENTENCE: the film is right in the middle, not the best, not the worst, but still another enyojable ride, for “scary” movie fans it’s hard to miss.
all of the children have these big fuck off eyes and i hate it like i know it’s supposed to represent innocence or whatever but what the fuck
