	Charlie and the Chocolate Factory : film review
		Charlie and his family, following a nice introduction in the film's beginning, are soon pushed into the background.
		The tour and the factory itself are about as much fun to visit as the dentist office, and a ridiculous subplot involving Wonka and his estranged father (Christopher Lee) is an extraneous one that should have been written out.
		Charlie and the Chocolate Factory promised to be a tasty confection of dark comedy that turned out to be a bland, bitter piece of cinematic junk food.

	Hour.ca - Film - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
		Understanding the concept of appropiation, the gene wilder led willie wonka and the chocolate factory was a very subversive film of the relative time of the seventies.
		having seen willie wonka and the chocolate factory as often as i have seen clint eastwood's spaghetti westerns and dirty harry films as a child on television, the wonder of willie wonka and the chocolate factory was the simple fact that willie wonka was a very stern and cruel individual.
		The primary struggle is between Charlie wanting riches vs losing his family while secondarily Willie Wonka has lost his family and thus his 'candy-muse' and he needs to reunite with his estranged father to fix his mental block (secondary because his personal revelations all stem from Charlies' influence).

	SoundtrackNet : Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Soundtrack
		The score that he wrote for the film is a fantastical return to the Edward Scissorhands style of film scoring, mixed with a touch of his current "modern" sound, and a dash of To Die For.
		But when heard in the context of the film, and the lyrics (which were adapted from Dahl's poems, with the exceptions of "Wonka's Welcome Song"), the songs suddenly work - exceptionally well.
		"Chocolate Explorers" is a calm track, with a sense of mystery that builds slowly, bringing in a bit of tribal rhythms and buzzing near the end.

	The Tim Burton Collective - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
		Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is arguably Burton's first kid's film since Pee-Wee's Big Adventure and, as a pure sugar-rush of light-hearted entertainment, it's almost impossible not to enjoy.
		It's fair to say that, for most of its running time, the film is, like the candy that comes out of the factory, sweet but rather lacking in substance.
		The film even manages to breathe new life into a homage to Kubrick's 2001, in an inspired scene with a chocolate bar replacing the monolith.

	MovieMartyr.com - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
		Tim Burton’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, an adaptation of Roald Dahl’s beloved, nasty children’s classic is an imperfect film, though it fares better than Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, the first film made from the source novel.
		The first act of his adaptation is indeed dominated by Charlie Bucket’s plight, transporting the viewer to an expressionistic town dominated by the presence of Wonka’s omnipresent but out of reach factory.
		It becomes apparent that the film’s ulterior motive is the artistic evolution of its creator and that of the boy who strives to emulate him.

	Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
		Charlie Bucket comes from a poor family, and spends most of his time dreaming about the chocolate that he loves but usually can't afford.
		This is a Johnny Depp film, and a fantasy that flies on the surreal energy he is able to extract from almost any role.
		Charlie (Freddie Highmore) is the poorest and purest of the children, there solely for the love of candy.

	Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		The new film reiterates the message that both children and their parents must suffer the consequences of their various transgressions.
		Charlie and the grievously rude and self-indulged children who accompany him on their tour of Wonka’s factory are told that one of them will be awarded a prize at the tour’s conclusion.
		Repetition, a running theme throughout the movie, provides stunning visual effects and is evidenced in the chocolate factory’s assembly line, Charlie’s father’s job at the toothpaste factory, and the workshop of the nut-cracking squirrels, as well as the song and dance routines of the oompah loompahs (who become increasingly annoying as the movie progresses).

	'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		A boy tumbles into a chocolate river, a girl balloons into a blueberry, another is dragged across the floor by squirrels, and a boy is miniaturized and stretched after a TV experiment goes awry.
		As in the book, young Charlie (Freddie Highmore) lives with his parents (Helena Bonham Carter and Noah Taylor) and four ancient grandparents in a ramshackle house not far from the world's largest chocolate factory.
		"Charlie," however, is a triumph of production design, kicky musical numbers (with actor Deep Roy playing every Oompa, individually filmed and expertly combined), and special effects that make it appear as if a girl is ballooning into a blueberry and squirrels are perched on tiny blue stools in a factory, efficiently shelling nuts.

	Charlie and the Chocolate Factory film review
		Of course, we're all rooting for Charlie but he and his family are really ciphers, goodness through and through offset by bloated (in one case literally bloated) caricatures of the worst human traits sharpened by the excesses of surreally spoilt childhoods.
		As mentioned, this is Wonka's movie and the only time the film trips over itself is at the dénouement, changed from Dahl's original and very different from the sweet and emotionally satisfying punch delivered by Wilder's line (quoted above) as his hand curls around Charlie's returned everlasting gobstopper.
		Charlie's victory over the other children is brushed aside (the tear inducing wallop of the 1971 version).

		Johnny Depp is Willy Wonka in a whimsical chocolate land.
		Willy and Charlie, however, are on the same wavelength: They naturally gravitate toward those things in life that are cheerful, optimistic and good.
		Throughout the factory, workers named Oompa Loompas perform such tasks as mining fudge and rowing a spun-sugar seahorse-shaped galley on the chocolate river.

		For those who have read the book and were disappointed in the liberties taken by the 1971 adaptation (Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)) I am happy to say that readers of the book report the new movie is very true to the original source.
		I am beginning to feel sorry for Helena Bonham Carter who does a fine job but cannot get a break in my book anymore since she seems to be a shoo-in for any of her boyfriend's projects.

		In the flashback where Wonka opens his factory, Johnny Depp holds out his giant scissors in a posed fashion, very much in the style of his title character in Edward Scissorhands (1990).

		Freddie Highmore is engagingly winsome as one of five children who scores a ticket to the world's most magnificent chocolate factory.
		His greatest strength is in creating a seductive but slightly off-kilter wonderland rippled with chocolate rivers and where marshmallows grow on shrubs harvested by pygmy-like Oompa-Loompas (all played by Deep Roy).

	Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - Film - Entertainment - smh.com.au
		What Depp and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory's director Tim Burton have done here is to preserve Dahl's plot, while giving it a few vigorous tugs and twists to take account of some of the ways children have changed since it was written.
		The basics are the same, for Burton, too, operates on the assumption that children like stories that arouse their demons as long as they can be assured that, when the crunch comes, those same demons have glass jaws and wobbly legs.
		Delights such as the chocolate river and the blueberry gum tasting like a three-course dinner all contain hazards for the unwary, or the just plain ornery.

	Charlie and the Chocolate Factory film review
		The young boy's obsession with the nearby chocolate factory where his grandfather (David Kelly) once worked reaches a climax when he finds one of the five lucky golden tickets offering a tour of the premises which have remained closed to outsiders for 15 years.
		Indeed, there is a sinister undercurrent to much of the film, one that perhaps borders on inappropriate with the inclusion of a spoof on the shower sequence from Hitchcock's Psycho.
		When done well, children's films have the ability to captivate the imagination of old and young alike, distilling life into its most essential and simplistic elements.

	Charlie and the Chocolate Factory \| movies : ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
		As Willy Wonka in Tim Burton's film of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Johnny Depp wears his hair in a bob that looks like he might have stolen it from Julie Christie in 1966, and he has milky translucent skin that gives him the appearance of a corpse made entirely of Muenster cheese.
		His last two films, Big Fish and Planet of the Apes, lurched in and out of formula, but Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which has been faithfully adapted from Roald Dahl's great 1964 children's novel, is a delectably sustained flight of fancy.
		As the children are vanquished, one by one, from the chocolate factory, each done in by greedy overindulgence, Burton makes the factory a place of blooming danger and wonder.
