Original was better, but I liked this one

Rating: 8/10 (10 June 2007)

Frankly, I liked the original movie better, but this one's good, and more true to the book (to a point). I thought Wonka was scary, and I knew those weren't his real teeth. Some of the songs scared me, but those I laughed at the most. ("Willy Wonka:The Amazing Chocolatier"; "Veruca Salt"). They should've put in the thing where Charlie and Grandpa Joe go up the bubble thingy, and the part with the lickable wallpaper. The graphics were better than the original, at least in the chocolate room. Deep Roy was good as the Oompa-Loompas, but the ones from the original were better, and so were the songs. I thought Mike Teavee was a bit too rude in this movie, as well as Augustus Gloop. They weren't that rude in the original. But if you're a big fan of Tim Burton, you must see this movie, along with "Corpse Bride." 8/10.
