Om denne film

Director Tim Burton brings his unique vision and sensibility to Roald Dahl's classic children's story in this lavish screen interpretation. Willy Wonka (Johnny Depp) is the secretive and wildly imaginative man behind the world's most celebrated candy company, and while the Wonka factory is famously closed to visitors, the reclusive candy man decides to give five lucky children a chance to see the inside of his operation by placing "golden tickets" in five randomly selected chocolate bars. Charlie Bucket (Freddie Highmore), whose poor but loving family lives literally in the shadow of the Wonka factory, is lucky enough to obtain one of the tickets, and Charlie, escorted by his Grandpa Joe (David Kelly), is in for the ride of a lifetime as he tours the strange and remarkable world of Wonka with fellow winners, media-obsessed Mike Teavee (Jordan Fry), harsh and greedy Veruca Salt (Julia Winter), gluttonous Augustus Gloop (Philip Wiegratz), and ultra-competitive Violet Beauregarde (AnnaSophia Robb). Over the course of the day, some of the children will learn difficult lessons about themselves, and one will go on to become Wonka's new right hand. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory also stars Christopher Lee, James Fox, and Noah Taylor; the book was famously adapted to the screen before in 1971 under the title Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, with Gene Wilder as the eccentric candy tycoon.

This movie is definitely recommendable to audiences that love a dark spin to classics or are just huge fans of Tim Burton's movies. It has certain elements that stay true to the book and the movie from the 70s - but otherwise there are new ideas introduced and some elements are changed to add depth to the movie. The cinematography is just so beautiful - the way everything works together from the colour, lighting, camera angles, fluidity, to the camera movements. Not to mention the costumes are pretty wacky but in a great way. The sets are also very creatively thought out - especially the factory. Johnny Depp gives a very convincing performance as Willy Wonka as do the children to their roles. If you've seen Johnny Depp's other movies, then you know to expect brilliance as he brings the character to life in a different way each time - and this does not disappoint.

JD is absolutely like a different person in this movie! I love him in PoC... He acts beautifully and give all. If u see his interview in utube.. U never imagined this wonka is indeed JD.. Hahahaha.. Worth to watch during winter or weekends.
