Frankenweenie, Tim Burton’s
newest film is nominated for animated feature film. Tim Burton returns to stop
motion animation similar to his well-loved Nightmare
Before Christmas. I have heard several people not like this film simply
because it’s in black and white, which I agree lost some younger viewers just
because they don’t like black and white films(which I don’t find to be a good
enough sole reason to not like a movie). I think the decision to make Frankenweenie black and white added to
the film’s more dark feeling of death and science experiments gone wrong (or
right). Victor who is voiced by Charlie
Tahan, which some may know from Charlie
St. Cloud, loses his dog Sparky and brings him back to life like
Frankenstein. Frankenweenie is a
great family film (PG-13 rating) and for the dog owner’s out there, I’m sure
you’ll see parts of your dog throughout the movie. To win the animated feature
film Oscar, Frankenweenie will have
to beat out Brave and ParaNorman both of which have been
winning animated awards across the board.
Frankenweenie is now
available on Redbox.
