Spectacular Movie

Rating: 10/10 (20 July 2005)

I was absolutely stunned when I saw this movie. I expected it to be a silly, childish movie, but (though it was silly and childish), I thought it was very well done. The music was awesome, I loved the way the factory was laid out, and it really just kept me laughing. I highly suggest that you go and see this movie.
Another funny little thing that made me laugh was that the oompa loompas were all played by one man. It must have been hard, especially, to do the scene in the nut room around the garbage chute. It was still very funny. When they were winding in the tunnels though (on the boat), I wish they had made it a little more like the original, cause that was funny. But this was still really good. There was no Mr. Slugworth in this one either, and the everlasting gobstoppers really weren't all that important. Whether or not this was what went on in the book, I don't know, but still, it was better that way.
Wonka also had a lot of "flashbacks" in this movie to explain why he's a reclusive Chocolateer. Wasn't in the book, but still added a very nice touch to the movie. Quite a bit of the humor was found there, in the flashbacks.
Anyhow, I really hope you guys go and see this movie cause it was really spectacular!
