Okay, I'm not a huge fan of Tim Burton, his movies are always filmed on the "slant", if you know what I mean...........but I must say I enjoyed this flick. I was a little concerned with the casting of Johnny Dep as Willie Wonka, but about half way through the movie, his characterization of Willie started to "click". Not as good as "Batman", but still, an afternoon of fun..... :agree: for me on this film too. 42
