Amazing movie!

Rating: 10/10 (27 July 2005)

I saw this last weekend because "The Island" wasn't playing at four. I was blown away! I was looking forward to seeing "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" but did not think that it would be this good! I have seen the original and have never really enjoyed it very much, "Charlie" held my attention from beginning to end. Tim Burton creates a wonderful world of imagination, color, and magic.
I've heard a lot of people say that they didn't like it because Johnny Depp "Act's like Michal Jackson" Well, if you have read ANYTHING Johnny Depp has said about this you will know that he did NOT base Willi Wonka's Character on Jackson. I personally thought he was funny (as did everyone else in the theater I was in) and the back story that Tim Burton and John August have added to his character explain why he acts so... different.
This is a wonderful movie, and one of my personal favorites.
10 stars outta 10!
