Man, I love this movie!

Rating: 10/10 (20 August 2008)

In my opinion, this is the best movie ever. Many people are complaining that this movie is "too weird." Well, yeah. It's supposed to be strange. Gene Wilder's adaptation was strange (boat scene) and yet he gets no grief. If you read the book Willy Wonka is a strange man. Also, when Charlie haters are not complaining about how weird it is they are saying that the old one is better. The old one is great, don't get me wrong. However, after reading the book you can't help but say that the new one is far superior. It's almost word-for-word the book. OK, I'm done complaining. Back to the good parts. I can't say enough good things about this movie. It was funny, entertaining, satisfying, heart-warming (sounds like an apple pie). It's an all-around great movie. One more thing, Willy Wonka is not exactly hard to look at. Johnny Depp is a very handsome man. I read in "trivia" they thought about having the rock play Willy Wonka. I'm sorry, but that is messed up. OK, maybe Robin Williams. Maybe! But not the rock! In short, this is a fantastic movie. It's my favorite.
