Movies opening Friday:
"Big Fish": Tim Burton's latest fanciful film concerns Edward Bloom, a teller of tall tales (Albert Finney), who relates his mythic exploits as a young man (played by Ewan McGregor), when his wanderlust led him on an unlikely journey from a small town in Alabama, around the world and back again. The adventures run from the delightful to the delirious as he weaves epic tales about giants, a witch and conjoined-twin singers.
