This film shows the talents of Johnny Depp as one of the great actors in recent times for his role as Edward. The cameo appearance of Vincent Price as the Inventor makes this film a classic. The plot involves an "Inventor" who creates a sort of android from a metal robot who made cookies on an assembly line. The Inventor dies just before completing Edward's human-like hands leaving him alone in the mansion. He is happy there until an Avon Lady makes a visit to solicit sales of cosmetics. She takes Edward home to live with her and people problems evolve in this suburban development. He finds plutonic friendship with her daughter, Kim. However, Kim's boyfriend becomes jealous and tries to kill Edward, and also runover Kim's little brother in a drunken rage. Finally, the town mob chases Edward back to his hilltop mansion where Kim's boyfriend is killed in self defense by Edward. Kim lies and tells everyone Edward was killed by the boyfriend so everyone returns home. Tim Burton is the genius director behind it all. Don't miss this.

No Jack Skellington but Johnny Depp plays Edwards innocent ackward sheltered existence all to well. Similar themes as most Tim Burton projects -- but this is no PEE WEE movie. Playing a much more somber tone! Still fantastic and always worth a rewatch or give to a friend having a bad week!

The first time I watched Edward Scissorhands, I was GLUED to the TV. Then I saw the DVD in BEST BUY. Of Course I bought It. Not sure how many times I'VE watched it now., anyway great movie for all ages. characters must have soo much fun making that movie.

I purchased this movie remembering how much I liked it when I was a teenager. My boys both did not want to watch it but after some convincing we finally settled to watch it. It was like I remembered and the boys enjoyed it too. Price was great also.

This is a great movie for the whole family. Vincent Price is in the beginning, which makes the movie wroth watching! Tim Burton put together a great cast for it, making this movie an instant classic!
