Timmy seems like a miscast but Holland seems like even more of a miscast. Gene Wilder was a demented hot weirdo, Holland and Timothee both have big theater kid energy. It needed to be like ten years younger Ryan Gosling or something.

Timothee can be demented! He's perfect! What are you saying!

[Morieris]

So this is the plot and it sounds kind of batshit in a good way

80%, should be strong enough as a catalyst. 

 

[MovieMagic]

I’m seeing 85% from 46 reviews on RT’s website.

 

Average is 7.9/10 from the reviews posted.

It’s not exactly raves but at least it didn’t turn out like THG 

 

Should help a bit let’s hope

[SpiderByte]

Overall consensus seems "good but not nearly as good as Paddington"

[Lucas]

lmao the top critics average is 8.8 after 22 reviews

that’s the consensus for most movies in general!

We need to talk about nepotism and white privilege. Many critics are trashing Timothee's performance. It's not a big surprise, though. His performance is horrible in the trailer and in every material that came out.

[SpiderByte]

Yeah the biggest split seems to be whether or not Chalamets Wonka is fun or irritating 

[TMP]

Never got all the negativity for the trailers for this tbh. the CGI hugh grant still looks distractingly awful tho

[keysersoze123]

Key thing here is average rating. This shows its raved by those who liked it. it does not require universal acclaim. I think its primed for a huge breakout. 

[Grand Cine]

With the good critics and if the movie has good WOM from public , i think he could be the biggest success since the Barbenheimer

White privilege???

[AniNate]

Yeah, let's not go down that road please.

I get his age would kind of be hard to avoid at this point but if this movie were made 15 years ago Christ would Grant be a perfect Wonka

Nepotism is such a sad thing, this kid has neither charism or acting skills to play a complex character like Wonka, and yet, he got the job without even doing a test.

You’re forgetting Five Nights at Freddie’s. More than 10x its budget.
