Ive seen some reviews where people loved it, but for me it never quite hits the mark.
Others are less impressive vocally, with Helena Bonham Carters caterwauling being painfully reproduced.
Though, she does actually make up for this with some excellent acting.

But what of the disc extras?
They also try somewhat unconvincingly to push the line that Sweeney Todd has a real history.
Its fluff, but no less entertaining.
Theres also a really good featurette on how you simulate people having their throats cut on film.
Too many movies are doing that, and its not good enough.
Overall this is a high quality title, which demonstrates well what Blu-ray can bring to digital distribution.
If any all movie releases where as good as this.
In recent Blu-ray releases,Sweeney Toddis yes!
a slice above the rest.
