lol, I thought it was quite good, saw it today. VERY weird but very intriguing and different, too!

I've heard from several people that it was horrible.

I just finished watching it right now!
It's not a bad movie.
It's a lot like Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Same character names, different people.
Willie Wonka is still the one that owns the factory.
This time, there are flash backs about Willie's child hood. The Oompa-Loopas are smaller and they sing differently.
It was a nice ending though.

I just came back from seeing it, and I loved it!

The Oompa Loompa songs were amazing - I am definitely buying the soundtrack. The whole thing was actually very funny, and well done. Really cool.
Playful as a pussycat.

Same here. I must be one of a handful of people who isn't interested whatsoever in seeing this. Depp just seems creepy and the trailer has him delivering boring and silly one-liners ("You're creepy," etc.), and that sort of thing really turns me off of a movie.

Then again, I wasn't the biggest fan of the original; I just don't see why they need to remake it. Can't they come up with, oh I don't know, something on their own?

The book is one of my all-time favourites, so I would't want to see the film which doubtless wouldn't do my imagination of how the book looked justice! ;-)

I bought a ticket to go see CATCF at the Cineplex Odeon theatre downtown tomorrow, for the matinee performance.

Will let you guys know what I think of it after I've seen it!

I'm going with my friend to see it tomorrow, too!


Even though I've never been a big fan of the orignal, but I wanna see if it's really as great as most people are saying it is.

As I read the title I had another imagination of the choc factory. :)
I'm bit bored of Johnny Depp fairy-tales. I understand that he's a full time dad now, but he should play in a normal movie again.

i saw it today...
the scary part was that JOhnny Depp looked like my boyfriend XD the hair, the clothing.. yup. fabulous.
I loved the oompa loompas' dances and the squirrels! AAAAH.... yeah... my mom enjoyeds it too. Such a trip.
A little bit of heaven and a whole lotta hell.

I saw it too, also earlier today!

Thought it was great! Nice choice of music, and the movie was very funny.

I loved how Willy Wonka (Johnny Depp) kept telling that Michael (correct name?) kid how he couldn't understand him because he kept "mumbling".

The ending was nice too (won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it, but it's different from the original version of "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory", that's all I'm going to say!)

And the Oompa-Loompa's were awesome!

Overall, I think this movie would definitely have to be rated 5 out of 5!

AWESOME!!! I SIMPLY LOVED THIS MOVIE
really so funny with the little guy, I love how tim burton did not try to re-make but simply re-create a version in his own taste.
It was so good, we just went and got the soundtrack right after the movie, that was a first!
and I love the preview to Barnyard...that movie looks to be a classic.


Yes, we had the Barnyard preview too, here in Canada! That movie looks funny.

They also had trailers for the second "Ice Age" movie (something 'Meltdown'), and the Wallace and Gromit movie. I'm def. going to go see both those movies!

I loved it! I think I might go back again (only this time with my familY) and I definately want to buy the soundtrack. I came into the movie assuming that I wasn't going to enjoy it but I was blown away. Definately the best movie I've seen this year.

"Stop mumbling, I can't understand you!"

hehehehe
I think I'll hang on to those lines for a while.
