Johnny Depp never performed so sweet

Rating: 8/10 (11 August 2005)

In this version of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, I must say that Tim Burton did an okay job in adapting it to a new generation, though, I believe Johnny Depp's acting as Willy Wonka, was a little too exaggerated, I mean he acted a little weird, especially at the ending, but I must say it was clever, and he looked cool, the hat and the hair, he looked Marilyn Manson a bit, and he was really inspired by his look too. And I liked the way he spoke also, especially when he was reading the cards, and when he keeps getting flashbacks, especially when he remembers his dad, I liked that part. And I must say the umpa lumpas(not sure if that's how it's spelled) were very cool, and I liked their songs. Overall a nice movie, but another remake, but it is not one of those bad ones, but still, this has to be one of the most promising movies out there, and this being a Tim Burton film, most of his films are amazing.
