The Tale of Sweeney Todd (1997 TV Movie)
4/10
A brilliant movie decapitated by its score.
7 October 2022
So much about this film is not made-for-TV quality. The acting is very good. The directing is very good. The writing is very good. The editing is very good. The sound effects are very good. The set is very good. The makeup is very good. The costume design is very good. The editing is very good.

But, then the score comes along. It takes all the acting, directing, writing, editing, sound effects, set, makeup, costume design, editing, piles sickly sweet spoiled meat on it, puts it in a box, wraps it in holiday paper, places a lovely bow on it with a Hallmark (tm) card on it that says, "Here's your made-for-TV product," and ships it.
