Critic Reviews of "Big Fish"
Time OutFebruary 09, 2006The film doesn't so much reject history as selectively rewrite it to its own reactionary, even offensive ends. This might perhaps be just about tolerable were the film funny, illuminating, insightful or moving. It is not.
New York Magazine/VultureAugust 07, 2004Overall, the film feels like it issues from a place Burton doesn't inhabit.
Chicago ReaderMarch 16, 2004Burton shows the rivalry between father and son but not the rancor, which seems to fit with the film's calm lyricism. But the father-son conflict is meant as the dramatic crux, and a forceful actor would have given it some much-needed bite.
CNN.comJanuary 08, 2004A compelling look at the relationships between fathers and sons, and the child coming to terms with the parent's mortality.
San Francisco ChronicleDecember 26, 2003A long-winded indulgence in tear-and-a-smile whimsy.
Fat Guys at the MoviesJanuary 12, 2016the father-and-son story to beat all father-and-son stories
Common Sense MediaDecember 22, 2010Delightful, sad father-son story for teens and up.
Suite101.comSeptember 25, 2010Reliant more on powerful familial emotions than wacky splendor, "Big Fish" treads as close to our real world as Tim Burton ever could - a melancholy dissection of paternal distance and never truly knowing how many lives those we love can truly affect.
City Pages, Minneapolis/St. PaulAugust 21, 2009Burton, favoring form over content, flavor over fact, has been often criticized for not knowing how to bring his work to satisfactory resolution. But I'd call that a good thing. Blame it on his dad.
Cinema CrazedApril 29, 2009Burton invokes the imagination from his crowd and succeeds in making us gasp in wonder.
