Excellent Reimagination!

Rating: 8/10 (16 November 2005)

Very enjoyable exeprience, enjoyed the new perspective, and the new take on all the characters and actions. Excellent music as well, and visually appealing. Me and my husband, ADORE the new Wonka movie.
The new Wonka does have a creepiness to it, and it's hard to see that being Mr. Depp, I can only wonder how much pancake makeup they had to use to get his face that way.
The story is nice, and I enjoyed the entire feel of it. I do wish the main chocolate room scene was long, one of my favorite things about the original movie is how long they show the candy stuffs from the movie.
Deep Roy, made and interesting, if not slightly disturbing Oompa Loompa, but he did it really well though, and the graphics used to make him several of them was clean and not easily noticeable.
Most rememberable scene of Gordeep Roy as an Oompa, was him as Ms. Doris, the secretary.
A definitely recommend this movie!
