Enviroman Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 I liked it. One of my friends (a diehard fan of the original) hated it. I thought Depp was a bit over-the-top but, overall, I enjoyed the movie. If you like Depp, see Finding Neverland...
jnpnshr411 Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 I hated the first one and hated the second one except for depp he was funny im G A Y and i love you i W A N K over you EVERY DAY!!!
Ninjitsu Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Depp looks like Micheal Jackson. Long live Gene Wilder, if he's still living, which I think he is.

aefibird Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Depp looks like Micheal Jackson. I thought that. I also thought that he gave a very good performance. I liked the old film and I like this one two, although it's not really fair to do a straight comparison on them, especaially as the 2nd movie is a Tim Burton pic after all! "Was it really worth it?

Nick_sam Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 i found i felt rather hollow after seeing the new one. i just dont think it lived up to expectations and to the original (although it did stick slightly more closely to the book). i found the characters to be generally weak and obvious points of the film were just purely "crowd pleasers" (ie, oompa loompa songs).ok, thats my film critic impression over!
isshinryu5toforever Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 I thought it was ok. I still liked the original more. I did like the new spin on Willy Wonka being a bit more sarcastic.

sdargie Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 The new one is, from what I remember, actually closer to the book than the one with Gene Wilder. There are even times when Grampa Joe looks exactly like a Rohl Dahl sketch in the books! I liked them both for different reasons but it's not fair to compare them to each other because they are trying to achieve different things. O Sensei said that everyone has a defined sphere of strength and if you can get them outside that sphere then their strength will disappear. I say, EXPAND YOUR SPHERE!
