It was... different.

I did like it, but I liked it as a Tim Burton movie rather than a "redo" of the first Charlie & the Chocolate Factory. Although having read the book to my kids several times, have to say, this one was more true to the book.

Except the whole Wonka backstory. That smacked of Tim Burton's fatherhood/dentist issues, cuz it sure wasn't in the book!
