Great movie, and very funny!!!!!!!!!

User review rating: 5 December 26, 2023

incredibly entertaining and all-star cast

User review rating: 3 December 26, 2023

This turned out to be a shockingly entertaining family flick with a lot of heart and classic moral measure. The setting is grounded so far outside of reality and the orgional, that it doesn't fall into the prequel trap because it stands as it's own story. The creativity and colors are vivid. The messages are inspiring and encourage kids to standup for themselves (a message of questionable philosophical value in these days). The biggest faults lie in the lead man, who bascally held this movie back with his stale acting, musical ineptitude, and complete lack of dancing skills. The supporting cast all outshined the lead!!! The musical writing was also a bit lackluster, but fine by 2023 standards. Overall a good family movie that could have been great if it weren't for one poor casting call.

My child gave it a 6 out of 10 and I happen to agree with that rating. Just not enough, felt blend and I wish it was more colourful, positive, and funnier.

The musical songs weren't even good. The way they played out the storyline was boring

User review rating: 5 December 21, 2023

Dancing. Music. Magic. Easy to follow story. Cute intelligent kid. Fewer Oompaloompas. What more could you ask for?

Timothy Chalamet makes a perfect Willy Wonka. He nailed the part. I can totally see him as a young Gene Wilder’s Wonka. Nice uplifting story line. Has a Wizard of Oz and the original Willy Wonka feeling of creating an incredible place that brings great wonder to your imagination. Dreams can come true if you believe in them.

Did the original justice. Great cast. Great songs. Very entertaining. Kid-friendly.

I’ve seen all of the Wonka movies, and this one was the best, by far. My 8 year old granddaughter agrees and wants to go see it again.

Disliked how drawn out the beginning was, didn't keep my interest.

User review rating: 5 December 17, 2023

Loved everything. No complaints

User review rating: 2 December 17, 2023

I liked the songs that were chosen for the movie. I also enjoyed the ending.

User review rating: 5 December 17, 2023

Absolutely loved it.

Go see the film before giving one star and be honest. It is quite entertaining and fun for all. A musical if you love music. You may want some chocolate later😀

User review rating: 5 December 17, 2023

The movie was good and entertaining for both old and young alike. I do not understand the negative reviews, especially when many of them were from just the previews.

User review rating: 5 December 16, 2023

This is quite imaginative as it should be. It's Willy Wonka after all! And it's not just a remake of the original. Johnny Depp was a better actor choice but then he's a bit older now. This story is less on the weird side than the others. It's really quite heartwarming. There's more of a Broadway feel to it than the others, too. While it's probably not going to win any awards, it's definitely worth a look for the young at heart.

Timmy Chalet is terrible. Another failure. When are they going to stop putting this guy in movies. He ruins most of the movies he is in.

Movie from Ohio

Okay, after watching this, I am seriously convinced most of the people trashing this didn't actually watch it. They just saw the very idea of its existence, saw the casting choice and everything and just wrote it off as a bad cash grab while ignoring the fact that it's directed by the same mastermind who gave us Paddington. And while it's not perfect, this is anything but soulless. Clearly the people behind this had a real vision and weren't just making this to cash in off of people's nostalgia. Now, I'll admit, I did groan a bit when it was revealed this was clearly taking influence from the film that isn't true to the book, but it's well done. The songs aren't anything too special, but they are relatively good, though there are at least a couple I felt could have been cut. And honestly, the lead actor is a lot better than people are giving him credit for. It's not just recycled Wonka. He brings his own thing to the table, and he's actually quite charming in the role. Seriously, guys, give this a real chance. Don't jump to conclusions based on promotional material.

This movie is so awful. You will hate this movie if you were a fan of the original.

User review rating: 1 December 14, 2023

If Citty Citty Bang Bang , had a baby with Hello Dolly , bad music , every 8 minutes, elevated because it's 2023, but really, weak , not hinous, just very , very weak . Enough said .

User review rating: 2 December 14, 2023

They should have cast Tom Holland, he's an excellent dancer/singer. Timothee just doesn't cut it. His singing is really weak and his dancing is non-existent. It would be been a really good movie with someone who could sing and dance. The way it is now, is just weak sauce.

User review rating: 1 December 14, 2023

This movie stinks. That walking mop(Chalamet) is unacceptable as Wonka. The visuals are bad and the story is dumb. I hope this fails.

User review rating: 5 December 13, 2023

Look, I really shouldn't be giving a score for a film that hasn't come out, but really, guys? Can't you wait until it releases instead of jumping to assumptions based on an actor? This looks fine from the trailers, and if the critic scores are anything to go by, it's actually a good film. (Granted, it is dumb to use RT as a reason to praise anything, but still) I mainly wrote this just to say you really shouldn't judge something off of its trailer or its appearance. That's unfair and you know it.

User review rating: 1 December 13, 2023

Wow, was this BAD!

User review rating: 1 December 04, 2023

If Depp based his WONKA on Michael Jackson, then Chalamet's inspiration was Pauly Shore. Thank goodness for Hugh Grant!

User review rating: 5 December 04, 2023

People are basing this rating watching the trailer or saying the actor looks creepy? Weird.

User review rating: 5 November 19, 2023

It was good

User review rating: 1 July 12, 2023

After seeing the trailer I have but one question: Why didn't they cast Hugh Grant as Willy Wonka? He would have been AMAZING!

User review rating: 1 July 11, 2023

At least he doesn't look like Michael Jackson this time, but the lead actor is still creepy.
