Not bad, but not good

Rating: 4/10 (25 November 2018)

It seems compared to the original, it's ok. Not the best but with the graphics and design of the chocolate room is actually really cool. You can actually taste the chocolate.
But the downside is more the story and the acting. Johnny Depp can never compete with the late great Gene Wilder. The Oompa Loompas aren't as scary as they used to be (thank you) but I guess I just like the classic. The story is more about Wonka than Charlie, the four other kids are somewhat forgettable, but at least they get an upgrade.
They are even seen at the end, unlike in the original. For me, Charlie is bland. As the other one was more full of emotion.
I like it, but it wasn't my favorite. I miss Gene Wilder
