surprisingly fun and entertaining

Rating: 7/10 (8 November 2008)

I enjoyed this movie, its very cool and not that predictable. Johnny Depp absolutely stepped up into this role. He's an amazing actor. He truly has become one - if not the - best actors of our time. All the children made the movie great with them being unique and creative. I liked the gum chewing girl and Charlie. The effects that they used to make the chocolate factory was incredible. The Oompa-Loompas looked so funny and their acting and dancing was hilarious. The director Tim Burton has great vision and the minor changes that he made from the original bring today's version easily into our homes. The only real weakness in this movie is that its kinda too dark and Charlie is very boring, he barely shows emotion, that messes it up. This movie can be boring sometimes and it feels a little weak, many people will enjoy this but others will hate it. Remember, this is just one guys opinion
