Film: Charlie And The Chocolate Factory

This film managed to get off to a great start, making me wonder why those of my friends who had seen already though this film wasn't that good. I soon found for myself why.

I'm not too sure what was missing, but something was. Noisy and confused Charlie even managed to give me a headache by the end of it. Depp was ok, as was the rest of the cast, but I suspect the biggest problem with the film was the, quite frankly, awful screenplay; anything that could be changed was.

Not totally bad, but disappointing all the same, I'm not sure I could recommend this flick. Read the book instead.
