Now this is one movie that needs real good actors to make it workSeriously.
Because, quoting my Baby Sis Amy "if not because of the actors and popcorns, I would sleep half way through it."
I have to agree with her.
The storyline is ever so simple, to be honest.
Dr. P (as Shima calls it) makes a deal with the Devil in order to become younger again to marry a lady.
The price? If he ever bears a child, he/she will be the devil's when he/she reaches 16 years old.
To save his gorgeous daughter, he makes a deal with Mr. D again.
You see, he has this imaginarium, where people who walk into it will be in the world of their ultimate imagination.
For example, a rich lady's ultimate imagination is full of shoes and pearls and handbags and a gigolo. Really. It's in the movie.
Anyway, people who choose the wrong direction or those who go beyond their imagination will end up dead.
The deal between Mr. P & Mr. D to save Mr. P's daughter is to make sure 5 people who walk in come out safe and sound. If the first 5 die, Mr. D wins and gets the daughter.
Confused already?
You'll get even more confused when you watch it for the first time.
Like I (and my sis) said, the actors made it a one of a kind movie.
First of all, the history behind the making.
Heath Ledger (RIP) didn't manage to finish shooting the film before his days ended.
So the ever so gushing Johnny Depp offered to take over. So did Jude Law and Colin Farrell.
The greatest thing? The money these three-some gets will go into Mathilde's fund, she is the daughter of Heath.
Adorable, isn't it?
And even though these three are different in every way, they managed to suit Heath's acting style.
The way he talked, laughed, shouted.
Lovely. And talented.
Heath was a real talent. I'm sure he could be the next Johnny Depp if he's still alive.
Well, good things always come to an end.
Indeed.
In short, if you want to watch Heath's final brilliant acting and movie, watch it.
If fantasy is too much for your entertainment that you don't want to think too much, please please please don't waste your penny.
Watch 'Avatar' instead. Or 'Chipmunks'.
*There's this scene when Heath introduced Dr. P for the first time. I swear he sounds like The Joker. Creepy.*
