General impression:
It looks very nice, and you may end up (like me) singing along with the Oompa-Loompas. And that’s pretty much it. “Willy Wonka, Willy Wonka, the amazing chocolatier / Willy Wonka, Willy Wonka, everybody give a cheer”.
Highlights:
Colors and visuals.
Downside:
It’s kind of bland, despite all the candy.
Would I see it again? – It’s OK if I won’t.
My Rating (1 to 10): 6
Recommended: Not necessarily
Suggestion:
Watch it only if you’re a Johnny Depp and/or Tim Burton fan 🙂
