I don't think it's a case of criticising Tim Burton's film-style, as it's proven that he's a VERY clever director, I think it's more a case of criticising him changing a well-known story that's been around for years.

It'd be like re-making Titanic and having Americans save the day by stopping the ship from sinking, or Pearl Harbour and having early-warning radar detect the Japanese suicide-planes and intercept them before they can do the damage they did...

Some stories are not meant to be changed......Hollywood, obviously, disagree.

Not gonna watch it, but can someone tell me what happens at the end of this new Charlie Choc Factory?? How has the original story been changed?

And remind me what happened at the end of the original one too! I seem to remember that all the other kids were greedy and became victims of their greed, and Charlie won, but can't remember what happened at the end.

Charlie wins, they then take a ride in the great glass elevator, out the top of the building, and fly over the landscape.

That's how the original one finishes - not going to bother seeing the new one, as the original is a classic I don't want ruined.

Saw it over the weekend.. TRULY WANK

I loved te book when I was younger and loved the gene wilder film.. This was wank wank wank..

All the refferences to his other films (Tim Burton) WHO GIVES A FUCK its about one of the greatest childrens stories ever written by aurgubly one of the greater writers not about some fuckin film director.

Johnny Depp was like a depraved peado.
It wasn't funny apart from when he walked into the glass door- the 2nd time wasn't funny...
Umpa lumpa songs we're shit couldn't make out the words...
Te way grandpa joe suddenly got up.. there was no build up to say he couldn't move before so it wasn;t such a great event.

SO NOT IMPRESSED
