True story of a director ranked one of the most of all time. Great casting. Johnny deep gave an outstanding performance.

Everything about this movie is perfect. I don't think there is a way you can change it to make it any better. I would highly recommend this movie any time. Especially if you want to learn about the crazy and interesting life of "Ed Wood".

This is definitely an original movie that’s even a little off the path for Tim Burton. If you like Tim Burton, or Johnny Depp, than you definitely have to add this to your list of movies to watch.

As quirky as the subject matter of the film "Ed Wood" is, I think this biopic is one of Tim Burton's most subtle efforts. Retelling a brief portion of energetic but talentless director Ed Wood's life, Burton manages to make every character likable even with their tremendous dysfunctions.

The entire film is in black and white and I can't even imagine what a mistake it would have been to make this in color. Johnny Depp is a total scene-chewer here. He brings the optimism and energy of Wood to a nearly over-the-top boil. Even when Wood is failing, Depp never plays for sympathy. The real standout is Martin Landau. Of course, he won an Oscar for his portrayal of Bela Lugosi. I really don't know how close he got to channeling Lugosi, but he created a character that was likable even though he was a drug-addicted, suicidal has-been.

There were a number of moments when Landau as Lugosi awes Wood with his "first take" monologues. Wood is speechless in his admiration, which is exactly how I felt watching Landau bring Lugosi to life.

yeah, really liked it.. i didn't expected this kind of movie from tim.. loved it & Johnny nothing to say.. i can't believe he is perfectly opted for that character. Edward Davis Wood Jr

I believe there are no reports of Ed Wood ever meeting Orson Welles.

An incredibly loving biopic, you can tell there is a lot of passion behind it, a lot of respect - and it came off beautifully, if a bit weak at times. Sarah Jessica Parker pulls the movie down a bit, as does her character, who - unlike the real person - was turned into a raging bitch for this movie, but for the biggest part it's an enjoyable, intimate experience. I wish Burton still had those sensibilities today.
