Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
I sat down with some chocolate (naturally) and watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I’ve eagerly awaited this movie, thinking that the combination of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp couldn’t go wrong. And it didn’t.
As every Burton movie, the scenery is magic; it’s like another world! Depp is totally outstanding in his role, and his sarcasm is beautiful, as is Freddie Highmore in his part as Charlie. However, Deep Roy have some scenes where he’s really close to stealing the whole show! The depiction of the children is also brilliant.
Without spoiling the movie for those who haven’t seen this, just remember these keywords: The set decoration, Johnny Depp’s laughter and the singing. Man, oh man!
All in all, a real must-see. Just like with Big Fish, I wish it would’ve gone on forever. The sudden “already?”-sadness comes along here too.
the "already"-sadness feels so familiar.
i agree with everything you said.. the facial expressions and conversations of willy wonka were spotless.
Charlie's house was definately the better "Tim Burton-esque" reference.. the dark side of him, that is. 🙂
andr3,
Yes, Charlie's house was fantastic!
I smiled every time someone came through the crooked door… 🙂
I agree the house was great…would you have any photos of it?
Thanks
Jared,
No, sorry. Maybe some intensive Google searching can help you! 🙂
