Let's Boogie!

Rating: 8/10 (22 August 2005)

Tim Burton does it again, a stellar movie! Don't compare it with the Gene Wilder version, or you will probably be disappointed. GW as Willy Wonka was appropriate for the era it was produced in.
It follows that Dahl would have been deliriously happy with this version as it is more darker, more adult in its treatment of Willy Wonka and the world in which Charlie inhabits.
Fans of Burton will not be disappointed! And I'm sure that the die-hard fans of Dahl and Burton alike will look forward expectantly to the deleted scenes that are bound to make the DVD edition.
Enjoy!
