a strange trip

Rating: 4/10 (19 November 2005)

Good looking movie without any substance.
Compared to Wilder's performance, Depp's was uninspired. Depp had none of the flair that Wilder used to feign indifference to the kids as the fell off the path at each turn.
Depp just seemed creepy.
Also, the umpa loomphas were just short people. They could have been so much more. Just a distraction.
And, did the ending make any sense at all?
Not to mention, the whole dental bit with this poor kid having his face stretched.
Boring!
