Deep messages, hilarious & performances

Rating: 6/10 (29 April 2020)

Great things about the movie:
1. Great lessons: parenting, family, and sins.
2. Amazing performance by Freddie Highmore as Charlie Bucket.
3. The production design of Wonka's chocolate factory is gorgeous.
4. The music by Danny Elfman is fantastic.
5. The costumes are colorful and lovely.
6. Johny Depp's performance as Willy Wonka is unique, although not really pleasant. Deep Roy is hilarious as Oompa Loompas. The choreography is interesting.
The visual effects are not smooth, although visually interesting. Representation is also weak, because the children and parents are white and either from Europe or America.
Debatable holes:
1. There was no explanation about how and why Wilbur's house was moved (in just 1 day).
2. Physics did not apply in the elevator.
3. It was very coincidental that Charlie lived very near the chocolate factory. Otherwise he would not be able to attend.
4. The golden ticket was only sent to Europe and America.
