"Both sharp and fleet... a satisfying screen version of Stephen Sondheim’s landmark 1979 theatrical musical."
- Todd McCarthy, Variety
"A thriller-diller from start to finish: scary, monstrously funny and melodically thrilling. And Depp is simply stupendous."
- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Sound Editing
It appears unlikely that Sweeney will wind up nominated in this
category.
This category tends to reward films action and animated films. The sound
editor's job is to create and compile the individual sound effects, much
like a production designer finds props and sets.

The soundtrack
is pretty complete minus the closing titles. All the underscoring is Sondheim's.
I don't mean he composed it, but it's all based on his themes with very
little of it changed from the original... All in all it's very a very well
put together soundtrack and includes much of the dialogue just as the Original
Broadway recording did."Read more of this post by Sondheim.com member notherSteve
"I'm wondering how many people are going to be seduced by this filmed Sweeney and be moved to seek out the OBC, creating, hopefully, a new generation of Sondheim fans. They will continue their journey until it ends, as it must, with "Someone in a Tree."
