Charlie And The Chocolate Factory (2005)

Date of Review:  Jul 16, 2005
The Bottom Line: Don't forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he ever wanted... He lived happily ever after.
Review: Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory (1971) is one of those movies I must have watched over a hundred times as a kid. Even just writing about it, I can hear the music in my head as Charlie goes to open that last candy bar...

The prospect...

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) - A Johnny Depp Sundae with Tim Burton Sprinkles

Date of Review:  Aug 10, 2005
The Bottom Line: I wonder if Wonka makes giant cookies?
Review: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory - you know, the one with Gene Wilder - used to play once a year on TV when I was a kid. Only once, and I relished every delicious moment. Oh, the lickable wallpaper, the chocolate river, the delectable fantasy...

Chocolate Galore in a Fantasy Movie Feast

Date of Review:  Jul 24, 2005
The Bottom Line: This is a fun, entertaining remake of the classic novel.
Review: Children's movies are not often the type I recommend. Many of them, even if they manage to pull together a semi- believable plot and a good cast of Hollywood actors and actresses, are often childish, silly, and devoid of anything meaningful or...

Johnny Depp is Wonderfully Kooky in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2005
The Bottom Line: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was wonderful and definitely worth seeing. Fans of Johnny Depp should enjoy his performance.
Review: I have seen many movies that Johnny Depp has been in and I’ve liked him in all of them. After loving Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, I realized just how many movies he’s been in that I’ve enjoyed. Since then I’ve made a...

Diabetics Beware-- Tim Burton?s Hyperglycemic, Cowardly Charlie & The Chocolate Factory

Date of Review:  Jul 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: Who can take a sunrise, sprinkle it with dew, cover it in chocolate and a miracle or two? The Bottom Line can.
Review: Spoilers Ahoy

That director Tim Burton's adaptation of delightful misanthrope Roald Dahl's Charlie & The Choclate Factory is marginally more faithful to its source material than was Mel Stuart's 1971 version, Willy Wonka & The Chocolate...

Burton and Depp Create a Modern Fairy Tale with "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"

Date of Review:  Jul 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: Although the squirrel attack will give me nightmares, the movie was as sweet as the candy Wonka's been making for years.
Review: Even though I'm in my thirties, I'm not one of the millions of my age cohorts who grew up with "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory." In fact, I had read the book and was in my twenties before I ever even saw the movie--which I saw in a "meeting"...

Two Hours of Chocolate with Zero Calories!

Date of Review:  Jul 29, 2005
The Bottom Line: This is a fun summer movie.
Review: After much anticipation, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory came out this weekend in the UK. The book by Raold Dahl was one of my very favorites as a child and I read it many times. I loved the first film vision of the story but don't consider it a...

"Oompa loompa doobadee doo. Here comes another Wonka review!"

Date of Review:  Jul 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: Good film with an awful ending.
Review: It wasn't that long ago that Hollywood announced it would be re-making The Manchurian Candidate. Of course, many longtime movie fans screamed heresy at the mere thought of it. Yet when the final result was delivered, the final verdict came out to be...

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Sweet!!!

Date of Review:  Dec 16, 2005
The Bottom Line: I would definitely recommend seeing this movie. It is so cute and funny.
Review: When first I heard that Tim Burton would be filming a new version of Roald Dohl's "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", I had visions of satanic oompa-loompas and decapitated children flashing through my horrified mind. What good could come of a...

This Movie is So Good, You Can Eat It Too!

Date of Review:  Aug 25, 2006
The Bottom Line: Tim Burton's Adaptation of Charlie & the Chocolate Factory is an Imaginative, Fun Ride with Great Performances from Johnny Depp & Freddie Highmore.
Review:
One of the most beloved books in children's literature, Roald Dahl's Charlie & the Chocolate Factory about a poor but sweet young boy who wins a golden ticket to see the famed chocolate factory made by its eccentric, reclusive creator Willy...
