    This is what "Nightmare" fans have been waiting fifteen years for.

    Much of it will probably go right over the heads of kids who aren't familiar with classic movies or the naughtiness of Eddie Izzard.

    Although the visuals tantalize and the actors providing the voices add a lot of sass, the result is only so-so.

    You can't blame John Cusack for jumping at the chance to play Igor.

    This was a wonderful family film. It is humorous not only for little kids but adults as well. The movie has an interesting and unique plot that develops its character's well. I would recommend this to people who generally like animated movies and are looking for a good family fun film. Expand

    Worth to watch. But not smart enough to be an animated movie on this era.
  4. I want to like it so much, but it wasn't funny and its computer animation let me down and it had a hit and miss premise that let me down and the voice performances were boring. I give this movie 27%. Expand
