Interesteg What makes it different from others?
StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

davidtkd-25249 Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory is an American film from 1971 starring Gene Wilder, Jack Albertson, and introducing Peter Ostrum as Charlie. The Plot: Willy Wonka, a crazy successful candymaker makes five golden tickets and places them inside five of his candy bars. The five and only the five that find the golden tickets are allowed into his chocolate factory and their prize is a lifetime supply of chocolate, giving them everything beyond their wildest dreams. A nice but poor boy named Charlie finds the fifth and final golden ticket and has an experience like none other when inside the factory. Gene Wilder and the rest of the cast give a wonderful performance. The film is directed by Mel Stuart. This film is a masterpiece and a timeless classic. A must-watch no matter what age you are. Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) is a film like no other. 10/10.
dylanholden1995 This is an old time great musical and fantasy movie with great moral lessons, but don't be mistaken into thinking this is a movie for little children. The extremely creepy scenes and the constant literary references makes the movie appropriate for older kids, maybe teens, and for adults looking to remember what it was like to be a kid and imagining what magical it must be like being inside a chocolate factory.P.S.- The internet meme of Grandpa Joe being a scumbag are totally true. The movie is about Charlie realizing his grandpa is a bad person.
jlcdwmartin Frankly, I was glad to see that the execution of the chicken was gone from the background of the boat trip as shown on the DVD. In earlier videotapes and even seeing the actual film projected on a screen, the killing of the chicken was considered something that should never have been included. Actually, the removal of the execution of the chicken made the whole film so much more enjoyable. I laughed, I cheered, I thoroughly enjoyed the production from beginning to end. Knitting: Kudos need to go to the little lady who was sitting up in bed and knitting striped socks, a red scarf, and a hat for Charlie. I knit, and one day I hope to make a replica of the hat, if anything.
