Sleepy Hollow - This movie should come with a warning because it has horrible stuff that is unredeemed by the good things in the movie, and maddening loose ends. It is contradictory and poorly contrived, seemingly unable to decide which genre it wants to be, and not in a brilliant groundbreaking way but in a failure floperoo kind of way. In its favor, the movie is a rich, dark gothic vision of post-Revolutionary America, and a truly creative reinterpretation of the Sleepy Hollow legend, with cheeky homages to previous interpretations like the classic Disney cartoon. But it's just a freaking mess trying desperately to keep itself together, not quite succeeding, not unlike the Headless Horseman himself.
