Even though there is a lot of buzz about this movie all around, it disappointed me a little.
Maybe because I was comparing it to the original Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. That was a classic.
Johnny Depp has done a great job, just as expected, playing the role of Willy Wonka. But I would have liked it if they would have shown him a little less demented (atleast I thought he acted like one). The Oompa Loompas were adorable (even though they all looked alike
)). The movie as a whole was naratted pretty well, but what disappointed me was:
1. Depp acting a little demented. Although he did put up a great attitude that goes with the Willy Wonka character.
2. The way Willy Wonka tells Charlie that he is going to be the hier to his Chocolate factory.
In the classic original movie the climax is brought out really well when Willy Wonka tells Charlie and his GrandPa that Charlie is going to get the chocolate factory after him. The new one didn’t really have it, and that to me was a very important part of the movie.
If you ask me, I’d say go and see it atleast once in the theatre even if you have seen the classic. For those who haven’t…order it on NetFlix or get it from BlockBuster TODAY !!
And YES do eat a chocolate bar after the movie. I was craving for one at the end of the movie.
