The movie is never as good as the book. In this case, I loved the book. I thought it was deep and very moving. The film however is a very superficial treatment of a raw and emotional story.

Comment:
The true story portrayed in Big Eyes is interesting but sadly the movie is a typical Hollywood formula film. I can't believe Tim Burton directed it. It could have been great but the approach taken here is very uninspired. In addition, the acting is terrible, especially by Christoph Waltz. There are many other compelling films about women artists. I wouldn't waste my time on this one.The true story portrayed in Big Eyes is interesting but sadly the movie is a typical Hollywood formula film. I can't believe Tim Burton directed it.

I think the two reviews below are technical errors and not related to this documentary which was not even released in 2013. Any way, Advanced Style is a wonderful, inspiring documentary about women, aging and true style. Loved it.

Comment:
I thought this was fascinating. I went into it knowing a little bit about Bulger, fully expecting to see a film about an organized crime boss and the atrocities he committed. What I did not expect was to see how he was enabled and protected by the FBI and other policing forces. This film is not really the story of Whitey Bulger but the story of government corruption. If you like Boardwalk Empire you will enjoy this film.I thought this was fascinating.

Comment:
I really like this documentary yet it makes a huge blunder which is that it fails to truly understand its subject. The filmmaker doesn't understand why Vivian kept her art to herself. She was mentally ill. That's why. This is revealed in the film yet the filmmaker doesn't seem to understand it. Interacting with the world was challenging for VIvian. She was a great artist but was inhibited by her illness. I really wonder if Vivian would like all of this exposure, even now. If he is making any money off of her work, I really hope the filmmaker donates some of it to help people who struggle with mental illness.I really like this documentary yet it makes a huge blunder which is that it fails to truly understand its subject.
