4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, loyal to the original book, Nov 12 2005
By A Customer
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was one of my favorite books as a child, so when I heard Hollywood was making a new movie based on the book, I jumped at the chance to see it. Having seen the first Charlie and the Chocolate Factory which Gene Wilder starred in, I was a little skeptical about Johnny Depp stepping into his shoes in the new version. However, to my surprise the new version is closer to the original storyline of Roald Dahl's book. My only complaint was the look of Willy Wonka. He looked a little too eccentric for my taste, especially his flashback scenes to when he was a child. The actor who played Grandpa Joe was wonderful, but I wished Charlie had a little more personality. He was a bit dry compared to the other children who met their demises in the factory. I loved the sets with all the candy and chocolate, very creative, just as I imagined from the book. One part which I was disappointed in was the Oompa Loompas. They were only played by one character, not very original. It was a little boring to see the same person again and again. Overall this movie is great for anyone who loved the book and the original movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a pleasant surprise !, Nov 10 2005
By Andre Villemaire (Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Full Screen Edition) (DVD)
If you ever saw the original and liked it ....you will love
this version. Ever finished a movie with a smile....this is one
of them. Great sets, great casting of actors/actresses, and the
hardest working actor in this movie would be the oompa /loompas
character, you will believe me once you see the extra stuff they
have on the dvd and how hard he worked at his part.
So its a great entertaining feast for your imagination.
Either you will love it....or you will hate it.
I was also surprise to see the great Christopher Lee with a
Role....excellent...Enjoy

5.0 out of 5 stars People are so Picky, April 21 2006
By A Customer
I think that all of you people who think that this movie is bad should get a life! Some people complain about the most silliest things. I for one really enjoyed the movie. The only thing that at first bothered me was how funky Willy Wonka looked. But once I got used to it I liked the way they did him. And all of those people who say that the original is better: It is good, but sometimes change is good to.

Many consider Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to be Tim Burton's best film in years, and perhaps it is. But it also falls a bit short when compared with the original. Read more
