All the people who say this movie is wounderful are in denial. They are just there to see Johnny Depp, not to see a movie. Depp doesn't compare with the original Wonka. He isn't funny at all... They make this look like a comedy on previews... But all it turned out to be was a cheap attempt to re-make a great classic movie

LANGUAGE - Early into the movie, one of the adults, "Like H---". Again, there was an instance where one of the grandparents started to curse, "Ba-----"......; Charlie's dad placed his hands over his ears so that you couldn't 'hear' the language; but it left no doubt about what he had started to say

Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka is one of the all-time classic acting performances. The original was far, far better in terms of story content--it was a jovial parody of the ills of society (spoiled children and their idiotic parents). I was thoroughly disappointed and hope I did not distort my kids' view of Willy Wonka.
The visual effects and the cinematography were very well done, but I still will prefer to watch my video cassette (yes, some people still use those) of the original.
