Tops for chocolate

Rating: 10/10 (5 August 2005)

I have to say this film was amazing, talk about entering your childhood fantasies. With many films at the moment there is lots of fighting and violence but this film is so innocent and I can't imagine anyone being able to find fault with the story line. Roald Dahl is one of the greatest writers of children's book and this film has really managed to catch what I think Roald Dahl was always trying to get across to children. He tried to make his stories fun, entertaining and full of excitement, which this film does not lack. The film was better than the original which I thought was going to be hard to beat. The characters were all very well played and the sets used where spectacular. The story was a little different to the original with lots of twists and turns along the way like a very exciting roller-coaster. Johnny Depp made an amazing appearance in the film, showing his talent at acting. While keeping the character of Willie Wonker child like and innocent he managed to add a hint of mystery and darkness to the character. I enjoyed the new Oompa Loompas i felt they were very modern and it added a new twist, to all be so identical. They even seemed to manage to mirror the darkness of Willie Wonka. The five children also made the movie extremely enjoyable with there amazing ability to get across the characteristics of each character. Overall I feel this is worth a 10/10 and is well worth the cinema money and worth a watch, whether you are young or old you will get some enjoyment out of it. I don't think I have been to a film where all the people laugh at the same points and where everyone comes out with a smile on their face. I also recommend the chocolate they are selling it is really very nice so why not buy some chocolate and see the best film by far this month.
