This is a Tim Burton film with something to say. And that's a rare and precious thing.

The stop-motion animation - a favorite tool of Burton's - is given loving attention, and the character design is full of terrific touches, such as the hulking flat-topped schoolmate who looks a bit like a certain man-made monster.

Burton's best film since 1994's Ed Wood or even 1990's Edward Scissorhands.
