Great Movie

Rating: 10/10 (16 July 2005)

Good Morning Starchild.... The Earth Welcomes you...
Very simply a masterpiece. All the under appreciated persons that make up this film (Burton, Depp, Elfman) come together again for a splendid and daring stab at reminding Hollywood what it once was.
Far removed from the political underscores and tones of the first, Burton adds his flavor to Mr. Roald Dahl's wonderful book. A must-see for most ages. I'd recommend 10 +.
It also strikes at the core of how bad parents are, pay attention to the Oompa Loompa scores. My Hat off to you Mr. Elfman for sticking it to traditional Hollywood composers.
Please go see this and help the Academy give these three due justice in the eyes of movie-goers. Simple, phenomenal, and a tasty treat. Candy has no purpose it's fun just cause it is.
