One of the very worst movies I've ever seen!!!!

Rating: 1/10 (6 August 2005)

Terrible bloated overdone bomb of a movie. Completely awful soundtrack, mixed horribly with the most obvious electronic harmonization of the Oompa loompas. Danny Elfman is normally okay, but this flat out sucked. Johnny Depp basically is playing Micheal Jackson. Lots of non sequeters in terms of time and space. Compared to the original it's a joke. On its own it's a overblown waste of time and money. There is nothing at all charming about this movie. I'll bet that it will be forgotten in pretty short order. Stay away. FAR AWAY!!!! With the current spate of remakes, this is one that is completely without merit. Not that Walking Tall, or the Dukes of Hazzard are gems, they're not, but this movie. UGH!
