The Bride Is Frankenstein

The critics on Corpse Bride and other new movies.

In this week's audio-only Summary Judgment, Mark Jordan Legan sums up how the critics feel about three new releases: Tim Burton's Corpse Bride, a stop-motion-animated movie featuring the voices of Burton regulars Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter; Roll Bounce, about the roller-disco craze of the 1970s; and Flightplan, in which Jodie Foster loses her young daughter aboard an airliner in flight.
