Could they have done this any cheaper????

Rating: 5/10 (11 November 2005)

It seemed that they were trying to cut corners with every scene. I remember Willy Wonka as being a great epic full oompa loompas and great acting. This movie takes one oompa loompa and pays him a days wage to play all the oompa loompas. Doesn't impress me, it just looks cheap. Many of the scenes were cut off looking as if it were filmed in the same undersized sound stage for each scene.And as for a good story line. could you maybe have given us something to care about before offing each child. And I seem to remember a great build up to Charlie finding a ticket. This one was so matter of fact. Booooooooring. Better to have just released the original on a special DVD with a picture of Johnny Depp on the cover.
