They just keep going through the same things over and over again. The songs are forgettable.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

All too often, Tim Burton's movies feel like they're covered in flop sweat, as if he's trying too hard and worrying too much. By contrast, Corpse Bride is a cool breeze across the brow.
Tasha Robinson, AV Club

Beneath the bone pile of allusions, Corpse Bride is a darkly enchanting fable in its own right.
Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Based on a Russian folk tale, Corpse Bride makes for breathtaking viewing.
