The Nightmare B...
Perfect 9 Points 1993

While not directed by Tim Burton, this is by far his best movie. It took two years to animate this masterpiece and the outcome is great. It’s a dark fairy tale for fans of the macabre.

Four Christmases
Awful 66 Points 2008

Love Actually
Great 90 Points 2003
