A Lovely Burton Rendition!

Rating: 9/10 (7 August 2005)

At first I was skeptical of the new "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory," with all of its changes and adaptations. I thought the movie wasn't going to be as great as Gene Wilder's performance, but having it been a Tim Burton rendition, I decided to see it.
I loved it! This Version of the movie gives a deeper meaning, as well as an explanation to why Willy Wonka is the way he is. "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" contains the little details mentioned in the book by Roald Dohl. In a comparison between the original and the new, I would recommend this version. Johnny Depp's performance proved to defy my expectations!
