I thought Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was simply wonderful.

 

First I all I must say I enjoyed it more than the 1971 version and Johnny Deep was excellent as Willy Wonka. I thought the way they used the flash backs to give some insight in to Wonka and his past was very well done.

 

I did like the way they used one actor for the Oompa Loompas, the dance sequences sure were funny and the music was catchy.

 

The level of acting from the children was good ( Freddie Highmore was great) and the character of Vereca Salt has got to be the most annoying child ever (stuck up little brat)

 

Overall a wonderful movie that surpasses the original.
