The performance by Johnny Depp, in this re-make of Charlie and the Cocolate Factory, is brilliant. This new outlook of the wonerful tale re-made by Tim Burton is for those of you who saw the original made in 1971, and loved the uniqueness of the movie. There is a lot of the same original movie here with a few new twists in the story line. The character Willy Wonka, played by Johny Depp, is presented as the mad factory owner that the original movie tried to portray, but Burton has achieved a much greater success in displaying how mad Wonka trully is an why.
This is a story that tells about a young poor boy finding a chance to succeed in life, with the help of a chocolate bar containing a gold ticket, Willy Wonka's contest, and love for his family.
My family and I have enjoyed watching this film over and over again, since we purchased it a year ago. It is like stepping into a bizarre, kid loving environment that even us bigger kids enjoy. I would recommend this movie for any age.
