The Age of Commercialism
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Good god how is this film given a rating above 6...It is beyond terrible.Are people really this tasteless?The musical acts sound like they've been pushed through a sound synthesizer by someone who hasn't got a clue what they're doing. The original musicals were pretty good, sung with appreciation and talent. Can't say the same here.Depp's performance, as bizarre as it is, is rather woeful. Reminds me too much of a Michael Jackson imitation and that's not what you want to be thinking about watching this film.The overall plot more or less follows the original in some ways, but really there's nothing to be gained from it. It wasn't ambitious enough, although the imagery was nice and splendid, it was sadly backed up by shoddy writing and direction.
The best way to describe this movie is Delightfully strange. I was in such a constant state of "what the heck was that" and "excuse me... What?" that couldn't help but enjoy myself. I'll give it 81%.
The original movie is entertaining, fun, and loving. I found this remake to be weird and creepy. I didn't like Wonka or the Oompa Loompa's. The scenes in the movie were crazy. They could have done a much better job at directing this movie.The only thing I liked about the movie was Wonka inviting Charlie and his family to live with him, and Charlie going with Wonka to see his father.3/10
I've seen a number of Tim Burton movies, but this one was BY FAR the worst. Doesn't even relate to what happened in the book or the previous movie with Gene Wilder. Did Wonka have flashbacks of his childhood? No. Did he even talk to or about his father? No. Or were there any more ridiculous stories Charlie was told about? No. What a ridiculous movie! When I heard that Tim Burton was going to make this movie, I just knew it was going to fail miserably.
