BIG FISH (2003) | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

really think this is one of Tim Burton's best films, and the spectacular cast elevates it even further

The best part is that Edward never exaggerated anything about himself, but just made everyone else in his life a bit more special. Also, RIP Albert Finney. Not everyone remembers what a quality actor he was. He was a legend!

she just called Danny DeVito "the dad from Mathilda"... she is correct, but I mean DANG.

I love how at the funeral Will is looking around and sees all the people from his father’s stories but they aren’t quite as fantastical as Edward may have described them. The twins are twins but not conjoined, Carl isn’t quite as tall, etc…. Will realizes that the stories, although slightly embellished, are actually true. It’s a great movie.

Burton did the movie as a way of saying goodbye to his father. They had a difficult relationship due to differing personalities (Tim was introverted and quiet, the complete opposite of his athletic father), but his father was the one who encouraged his son’s artistic passions (even if he thought they were weird).

I like the fact that, in the end, we see his “tall tales” weren’t completely made up: the twins aren’t conjoined but they are twins, the giant isn’t an actual giant but he’s very tall, etc. So, Bloom lived a big life after all.

My favorite Burton film. Star studded cast. Jessica Lang is a treasure

Everytime I watch you I think, "She seems like a genuinely kind person", please never change :)

This movie and Field of Dreams bring back memories of my father. Big Fish because of his love for his wife, Field of Dreams for the love of his father. And what a compliment! " ...made me want to sit down with my parents and have them tell me their whole life story."

Cassie remember Albert Finney was ERIN BROCOVICH'S boss!
