Film Review - Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE 1

1988’s “Beetlejuice” was a special film. It arrived when director Tim Burton was young and hungry, trying to make sense of a Hollywood career after the unexpected success of his feature-length helming debut, 1985’s “Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure” (arguably his best movie), handed another chance to create something strange for the masses. And “Beetlejuice” was certainly weird, but creative and hilarious as well, embracing Burton’s love of the macabre and monkey business, also giving star Michael Keaton one of his best roles as a wiseacre demon. After the endeavor scored big at the box office, sequels were discussed….for decades. Finally, Burton and Co. have returned with “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,” a follow-up that intends to keep the party going for the brand name. The production’s joints are a little rusty and the writing is overstuffed, but there’s fun to be had with “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,” especially when Burton taps into his old madness and Keaton is permitted to get goofy with his most distinct creation.
