TheMovieBlog hat eine gute Kritik zu "Sweeney Todd - Der teuflische Barbier aus der Fleet Street" veröffentlicht. Diese ist mit 7,5/10 Punkte recht gut ausgefallen. Der Kinostart ist bei uns am 21. Februar 2008. Neben Johnny Depp spielen Helena Bonham Carter, Alan Rickman, Timothy Spall, Sacha Baron Cohen, Jamie Campbell Bower und Laura Michelle Kelly mit.
