Charlie Bucket wins one of five golden tickets to tour Willy Wonka's amazing chocolate factory.

Rating: 9/10 (31 July 2005)

Enjoyed this film immensely, largely because of Johnny Depp's amazing performance as Willy Wonka and the wonderful visuals, true eye candy, that Tim Burton offered up. Actor Deep Roy CGI duplicated dozens or hundreds of times as all of the Oompa Loompas was such an example that comes to mind. An added little bonus of great casting was the wonderful elderly, talented actor Christopher Lee (now 83 and still going strong from what I can tell), playing a stern dentist. Some of the musical numbers were fun and imaginative, while a few weren't anything to write home about. The movie is a bit disturbing in places for young children, but well-done overall.
