Depp-led cult-director bio delves into cross-dressing, kink.

It's refreshing to see Burton in a relatively upbeat mood, but he picked the wrong story to give an optimistic spin.

The film's greatest achievement is to avoid the easy, patronizing laughs and instead see the near heroic qualities of a patently untalented artist.

A masterful ode to movie making and the horror genre.

Typically, Burton's storytelling is sometimes erratic, but his emphasis on humanizing marginal characters -- a project that seems central to his artistic agenda -- is as strong as ever.

Outrageously disjointed and just as outrageously entertaining, the picture stands as a successful outsider's tribute to a failed kindred spirit.

Given the finished film, one also has to wonder if Ed Wood was interesting enough to base a two- hour movie on.

Mr. Depp isn't best known as a comic actor, but he gives a witty and captivating performance, bringing wonderful buoyancy to this crazy role.
