Complete garbage

Rating: 1/10 (11 September 2005)

Can't rate this any lower, but if there were a cringe factor then it would get a 10. I found it 'nearly' as bad as Blair witch project (only this was in color!). As i grew up with the original I class it as a classic. This movie will be quickly forgotten due to the slow, boring and unexciting script and storyline.
The story starts out well enough but the agonizing slow and unspectacular way Charlie finds the golden ticket is reflective to the rest of the movie.
Not going to the movies all that often i was looking forward to relaxing and watching what i thought would be and entertaining movie. The closest i've ever been to walking out of a movie. This is two hours of my life i'll never get back.. Don't let it happen to you!
To other people who have commented favorably to this movie.. Where you watching the same movie as i did or are your expectations of Hollywood really that low or are your paid by the producers to write your entry in IMDb. I found more entertainment in reading the back of my movie ticket.
