... this sweet 1990 fantasy ... for the first time crystallized the latent themes in the director's work: the notion of the artist as outsider, of skills that make one special but at the same time different.

Fine performances all around, particularly from Depp and the immensely sympathetic Wiest.

Between this masterpiece and that other Ed (Wood), TIm Burton and Johnny Depp are at their dual-career best. Ed Wood is about how insane Hollywood is -- and Edward Scissorhands delivers the pure magic that, once in a rare while, escapes the place.

Mr. Burton invests awe-inspiring ingenuity into the process of reinventing something very small.

Burton's modern fairytale has an almost palpably personal feel: it is told gently, subtly and with infinite sympathy for an outsider who charms the locals but then inadvertently arouses their baser instincts.

Burton's richly entertaining update of the Frankenstein story is the year's most comic, romantic and haunting film fantasy.

A delightful and delicate comic fable.

...perhaps the cinema's most enchanting parable about the misunderstood and alienated artist.

It remains curiously hollow.

The film has an unapologetically adolescent purity about it that transcends what would ordinarily be the shortcomings of its script.
June 17, 2008
An original movie, though not Tim Burton's best.
