I rented this because I had wanted to see it back when it came out in the theaters, and I like Ewan McGregor and Tim Burton. I got a heads up from Kris L. about some of the weaker points. I wasn’t as strongly against the modern day aspects of the story, but the flashbacks to the life of Ed Bloom were way more interesting than anything else in the movie. Lots of emotion and cool visuals. A great DVD rental.
