A Wonderful Chocolate With Fun Filled Center

Rating: 10/10 (21 July 2005)

Charlie and The Chocolate Factory is an absolute blast. You can't help but laugh your way through this one. The tale follows the novel much closer and keeps you in stitches. Johnny Depp brings Willy Wonka to life and his quick wit, and comedic performance will have audiences wanted a second viewing of the movie. I have tried to think of something I really didn't enjoy about the movie but haven't been able to think of a thing. From old to young audiences will enjoy this romp through the factory. I take nothing away from the original or Gene Wilder who have kept us entertained for years, but Depp has really brought Willy Wonka to life. If you don't enjoy this movie it is probably because of it's silliness, but if you like fun and fantasy, this movie is for you.
