Wonderful!

Rating: 9/10 (5 August 2005)

This is my first time to submit a comment on any movie but I saw this last night and was compelled to do so! This movie is wonderful. There is absolutely no point in drawing comparisons with the original WWATCF. This is so different, so much darker. I'm a huge Johnny Depp fan anyway and, once again, he has displayed his phenomenal talent to totally become the character he's playing. Depp's Wonka is quite freaky especially in relation to his reactions to the children. I went to see this movie with two adult friends and we enjoyed it as much as all the children in the audience. There was a spontaneous round of applause when the movie ended. I'm already planning to see it again this weekend! The reason I rated it 9 out of 10 instead of a perfect 10 was because of the oompa loompa's - I just could not hear the words of their songs and found this really annoying.
