here goes..

Awesome story told and animated in most beautiful way.Tim Burton will never let me down, atleast not all the way. Corpse Bride is a family friendly animation movie, still quite dark and meaningful when it comes to concept.

Lets get down to the plot of the film now, shall we?

It a tale of a young man named Victor who is betrothed to a young woman named Victoria but accidentally marries a corpse and ends up below the earth with all the dead people. This is beautifully made and visually interesting but rather light on laughs and unfortunately includes songs.

Victor Van Dort is a nervous young man, the son of a nouveau riche family. His parents are determined that he should marry class and so they arrange for him to marry Victoria, the daughter of the aristocratic Lord Everglot. Victoria´s parents are keen for the marriage to go ahead as, despite their titled status, they are cash poor. During the rehearsal for their wedding Victor nervously bungles proceedings and ends up running off into the woods.

In the woods, He practices his vows for Victoria by placing the ring on what appears to be a protruding branch, but is actually the Corpse Bride’s bony hand, thereby inadvertently ends up marrying her. She takes the hapless Victor to the land of the dead and he battles to escape. Meanwhile above ground the wedding plans are threatened by Victor´s disappearance and the arrival of the dodgy Barkis Bittern who wishes to take Victor´s place.

Victor must choose between his living and dead brides, essentially. To be perfectly honest, throughout most of the film, I was undecided on who I thought he’d choose and be able to work it out with.

Tim Burton employs his trademark style here creating a cutesy gothic world of caricatures. As with The Nightmare Before Christmas he employs stop-motion animation and the effect is beautiful although it lacks in a few places. His direction is very good but the plot is weak and the project doesn´t feel as though it was fully fleshed out before going into production, consequently it feels slow and lengthy.

Corpse Bride features an all-star cast including Burton´s wife Helena Bonham Carter in the title role and his favourite male lead, Johnny Depp, as Victor. Naturally all of them are very good it´s just a shame that the script is not as strong though.

Overall, throughout my viewing of the film, I enjoyed it. May be you also should give it a try.

Title: Only This Moment

Only this moment
Holds us together
Close to perfection
Nothing else out there
No one to guide us
Lost in our senses
Deep down inside I know our love will die

Only this moment
Holds us together
Lost in confusion
Feelings are out there
Scared of devotion
Doubting intentions
Deep down inside I know our love will die

Stay or forever go
Play or you’ll never know
What heaven decided
You can’t deny it’s
All you’ve been waiting for

Stay or forever go
Play or you’ll never know
Your spirit’s devided
You will decide if i’m
All you’ve been waiting for

Clouds in my head have been parted with grace
By the voices of an angel revealing her face
and her words they make sense ‘n’ I do understand
Falling in love isn’t part of a plan

Forces within me mix reason with lust, but
I’ll try to accept it and not make it worse
’cause I know I might loose it by taking the chance,
(But) love without pain isn’t really romance

Only this moment
Holds us together
Close to perfection
Nothing else out there
Always beside her
Trusting my senses
Deep down inside I know love will survive

Only this moment
Holds us together
Close to the other
Nothing else out there
Always beside her
Trusting my senses
Deep down inside I know love will survive

This is amazing! watch!!
