the only reason people like it is because they got their hopes up and are in denial

Rating: 1/10 (27 July 2005)

this movie was just plain b-a-d. for starters-not enough eye candy. the first movie was packed with scrumptious chocolates and gumdrops, and this one is just like blah. secondly, there is far too much computer animation. it's hard to get into a movie when nothing looks real. another downer is the oompa loompas, setting aside the horrid fact that there was only one oompa loompa, the songs they sang were tacky and ridiculous. anyone that has seen this movie should agree with me that they (the movie makers) took the lovable, slightly weird, chocolatier and turned him into some creepy, almost michael Jackson-like character. the finishing touch, the cherry on top, that makes this movie horrid-the theme song. you have no idea how many years of therapy it will take to get that dang song out of my head (it's worse than "it's a small world"). i wouldn't go out and spend a dime on this movie, just catch it when it comes on TV.
