Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) Movie Review

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) Review


Personally, I prefer this version of this story than the 1971 "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" because it stays more true to it's source material. Tim Burton gives us his unique version of this story with a dark, full of quirkiness and weird style that appeals, not only to Burton fans, but to everyone, adult and child alike. I understand that many say that Johnny Depp's performance is a little bit weird and he's virtually playing a version of Michael Jackson but, for me, this is not a problem because I am a Burton, Depp and Jackson fan. Maybe this how Depp envisioned the character. The visuals are very appealing and beautiful, you can see the Burton style in those, the songs are funny and catchy and the performances are great. Freddie Highmore, whom which Depp collaborated on "Finding Neverland", is perfect for the role of Charlie Bucket. This movie gets a lot of heat but I cannot understand why. It looks great, it sound great and it will give you one hell of an appetite for chocolate. WARNING!!! Only see this movie if you have a lot of chocolate with you! 8/10
