A shadow of its former self.
I know there was a lot of hype for this film. The return of Tim Burton, Michael Keaton, Catherine O'Hare, and Wynona Rider are a big deal... a big deal, if the fun of the original can be recaptured in a new way. Unfortunately, despite the reprisal, this is not the movie one should expect.
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is highly predictable, with far less cheese that was loved about the original, and what was the reason for William Defoe's character? Honestly, I'd rather they go big on the third if there will be a third.
One more thing. I am sure that Wynona Rider's exaggerated performance is as directed by Tim Burton. However, it withdrew from the performance.
Ugh...what did I just watch?
