Reviews
I truly can't tell if Wonka is supposed to be a scrappy teenage or an adult.
That aside, this has its charms. The cast, sets, costumes, the colors, and the vibe are delightful. The plot was pretty wild. Wonka milks a giraffe. There's a Cartel. It doesn't hold a candle to the original, but I certainly didn't expect it to. I do like when he sings Pure Imagination and we see the factory though.
