    Quote:
    With less-than-inspired directorial choices the past decade or so, we’ve been waiting for Tim Burton to get back to more inventive territory. Reteaming with Ed Wood writers Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski, his forthcoming feature Big Eyes looks to be that answer. The drama, which is set to debut this December, follows Christoph Waltz and Amy Adams taking the lead roles of Walter and Margaret Keane, a couple who achieved international recognition during the ’60s with their “pop-eyed paintings” amidst some internal controversy.

    Ahead of a likely festival premiere this fall, The Weinstein Company recently held a test screening of the film and we’ve got the first exclusive impressions. Our source notes the film, running just under two hours, felt mostly finished with only minor sound and color correction issues, but as always, these are very early impressions that certainly shouldn’t be set in stone. Also highlighting its possible award chances, check out the full set of first impressions below.

    Big Eyes is the newest Tim Burton film based on the true story of artist Margaret Keane (played by Amy Adams) and her struggle with dealing with the fact that her husband, Walter (played by Christoph Waltz), was claiming credit for her paintings for years.

    Amy Adams gives a perfectly solid performance that is subtle, despite it’s fair share of obvious emotional scenes. However, there’s nothing too loud or showy in the realm of typical Oscar-winning performances like Cate Blanchett last year or Jennifer Lawrence the year before that. She’s definitely good, as she always is, but its nothing we haven’t seen from her. It’s actually all a very one-note performance, unlike her performances last year in American Hustle and Her.

    Christoph Waltz is on a roll right now. He’s a two-time Oscar winner and has consistently given excellent performances in films like Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained, and Carnage. Now, you can add another one to that list. Waltz does an absolutely marvelous job in this film. At first, he comes off as charismatic and charming like he did in the Tarantino films, but also manages to blend in that sense of arrogance and ignorance that he did in Carnage. He’s absolutely brilliant and steals every scene he’s in. Expect another Oscar nomination under his belt. Waltz kind of dominates the screen in the final act to the point where you sometimes forget Adams is also in the room.

    Tim Burton has been extremely inconsistent lately as a director. There are times where he really gives it his all directing films like Sweeney Todd, Big Fish, and Ed Wood. However, he’s also done lackluster studio projects like Alice in Wonderland, Dark Shadows, and Planet of the Apes. Here, it’s clear that Burton was invested in the project, adding a uniquely vibrant style to every scene. This is a beautiful-looking movie that is sure to earn a nomination for art direction. Definitely don’t count on Tim Burton being nominated though. You got to respect the guy for trying and you see a lot of passion in the film, but I don’t think he was able to elevate the material to its full potential. This is still his best live-action film since Big Fish though, and a nice welcome back.

    The tone of the film is all over the place. Sometimes, it doesn’t suit well for the story at certain points. It felt like there were scenes that were thrown in just to add his own flavor on it. There are times were it works, but quite a few times it doesn’t. At the film’s most outrageous scene, we get what feels like something right out of a horror film.

    Along with the inconsistencies in tone, the movie also has an issue with pacing. In the beginning of the film, it felt like the relationship between Adams and Waltz was incredibly rushed. At other points, the movie started to feel a bit repetitive with sequences of Adams painting the big-eyed paintings then seeing Waltz make money off them. I feel like had some of these scenes been cut out of the film to add more development for Adams and Waltz’s relationship, the movie would have felt a lot tighter and smoother as a whole because they worked off each other so well.

    Danny Elfman once again created a wonderful score. It is possible that some audience members could get annoyed by it, but it should get nominated in the vein of last year’s Saving Mr. Banks.

    The screenplay is one of the films weak points, which is surprising considering that this is the long-awaited reteam of Burton and his Ed Wood writers. A lot of it feels like we’re watching a soap opera featuring one-sided characters while Ed Wood‘s characters were far more humanized and eccentric.

    With all that being said, Big Eyes is still a very enjoyable film that has brief shades of greatness. Obvious highlights are the outstanding performance by Christoph Waltz, the gorgeous art direction, and the beautiful score. There’s still quite a bit that could have been done better, but it’s nice to see Burton return to doing films that are actually good again.

    Big Eyes opens on December 25th, 2014.

    Interesting take on The soundtrack:

    Main Titles
    Danny Elfman’s soundtrack gets off to a fantastically glitzy start, with orchestral and choral bombast to spare – perfect vintage Hollywood fare.
    A Serious Talk
    Delicate woodwinds form the main part of this conversation.
    A Strange World
    While the visuals in this film are predictably stunning and other-worldly, the music has to match it – Danny Elfman’s score is full of wonder here, with ethereal effects designed to evoke the mysterious and sumptuous world of Oz.
    Fireside Dance
    Another sumptuous number from Elfman, this time with added dulcimer and a glorious (dare we say Rieu-esque?) waltz.
    The Emerald Palace
    The location that so many people recognise from the original brings out the most lush orchestration you could imagine from Danny Elfman’s score – it’s foreboding and triumphant at the same time.
    Treasure Room / Monkey Business
    We’re pretty confident in suggesting that this particular portion of the movie will feature Finley, the flying monkey voiced by Zach Braff. As you’d expect, it’s a suitably cheeky piece of scoring from Elfman.
    Glinda Revealed
    This ethereal theme announces the arrival of Glinda, played by Michelle Williams.
    The Munchkin Welcome Song
    A classic slice of Elfman whimsy and a return for some of the most notable characters from the first time round – The Munchkins!
    The Bubble Voyage
    Mystical and exciting sounds from the orchestra give a fantastical sense of the visuals here – Elfman is the go-to guy for visually stunning stuff like this.
    Meeting The Troops
    A lumbering theme for the titular troops from Elfman, and another highlight in the soundtrack. Listen out for the gentle celesta in the background as well, something that Elfman has often used in his scores.
    What Army? More bombastic excitement from Elfman’s score here.
    Theodora’s Entrance
    Mila Kunis made quite an entrance at the Oscars, but we bet her arrival in Oz The Great And Powerful is even better, if the score is anything to go by.
    A Threat
    You can imagine how this slice of Elfman sounds just from the title alone – expect nervous strings and a sense of dread in the brass…
    Bedtime / The Preparation Montage
    This is the soundtrack’s longest section and is quick to assert Elfman’s rather deft way with quieter passages.
    Call To Arms
    …Danny Elfman’s score things have gotten decidedly more dramatic…
    Destruction
    Another dramatic bit of scoring, this time with lower-register brass dominating.
    Oz The Great And Powerful
    The title track from the film, this is about as anthemic as Danny Elfman gets. Lovely stuff, and a great iconic way to cement James Franco’s on-screen performance.
    Time For Gifts
    A sweetly emotional finale to the film, which has by this point taken in some seriously breathtaking scenery, some lush orchestration from Danny Elfman
    End Credits
    From Oz Danny Elfman’s epic score finishes with a bang, and a little tour of some of the best themes in the film. Another corking soundtrack from one of the modern masters of the genre.

    Is it just me or did anyone else have the tune “Can`t Help Falling In Love With You” by Elvis running through your head after listening to the score?
