johnny depp?

Rating: 1/10 (27 July 2005)

I was appalled by the selection of johnny depp for this movie. I thought he was disappointing to put it in the least way. He just didn't pull it off the way I was hopping he would. If I were tim burton I would actually go with a different actor. Johnny depp is in like every movie he makes like "Corpse Bride," "Edward Scissorhands," "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," and even other movies. How about some variation. I would have gone with jim carrey. He would have fit the part perfectly.
Another problem I had was every oompah loombah was the same person it just looked so strange and kind of creepy. The songs were just plain sadistic and didn't compare to the original. They even pretended to be Kiss! Thats not oompah loombish if you ask me.
Finally The kids were casted well but their parts were poorly written. Like Mike Teevee knew more about science when he was supposed to be a T.V. addicted brat.
All in all i give it two thumbs down!!!
