CaptainJackSparrow Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 A great film, nearly as good as the original. Johnny Depp did a great job acting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasmmi Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Total filmmaking abomination. The straw that broke the camels back with regards to my patience with Johnny Depp and Tim Burton ever producing a decent film again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 May be more faithful to the book but I like the original better. Gene Wilder craps all over Johnny Depp in this role. Depp annoyed me in this film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goffe Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) One the best combination of visuals, music and direction in Burton's career. Plenty of heart too. Shameful that the actual Chocolate Factory part is such a snoozer, especially for someone who has already seen the movie before. Performances are all on point, but Depp is on another level completely, he is always fun to watch. Wonka's characterization is one of the highlights and the black humor inherent to him is just fab. Might not the great movie I once remembered it being, but it's still an above average kiddie flick.

Morieris Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 The single thing about this movie that I maybe find a little tiring is the trailing plot thread of family that takes up ten minutes of the end. This is the quintessential adaptation of the book for me A- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
