    This turned out to be a shockingly entertaining family flick with a lot of heart and classic moral measure. The setting is grounded so far outside of reality and the orgional, that it doesn't fall into the prequel trap because it stands as it's own story. The creativity and colors are vivid. The messages are inspiring and encourage kids to standup for themselves (a message of questionable philosophical value in these days). The biggest faults lie in the lead man, who bascally held this movie back with his stale acting, musical ineptitude, and complete lack of dancing skills. The supporting cast all outshined the lead!!! The musical writing was also a bit lackluster, but fine by 2023 standards. Overall a good family movie that could have been great if it weren't for one poor casting call.

    My child gave it a 6 out of 10 and I happen to agree with that rating. Just not enough, felt blend and I wish it was more colourful, positive, and funnier.

    All the rave reviews for this were written by Steven. It was very uncomfortable to sit through this turkey.

    The musical songs weren't even good. The way they played out the storyline was boring

    Dancing. Music. Magic. Easy to follow story. Cute intelligent kid. Fewer Oompaloompas. What more could you ask for?

    Timothy Chalamet makes a perfect Willy Wonka. He nailed the part. I can totally see him as a young Gene Wilder’s Wonka. Nice uplifting story line. Has a Wizard of Oz and the original Willy Wonka feeling of creating an incredible place that brings great wonder to your imagination. Dreams can come true if you believe in them.
