Johnny Depp and Tim Burton team up again in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - a hilarious and wildly visual remake of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Just like any other Tim Burton movie, Charlie & The Chocolate Factory is fantastic to watch - great color, production and direction. And just like any other Johnny Depp movie, its very well acted. Johnny Depp and Tim Burton got rave reviews for the movie which drove strong box office success nationally and abroad. Kids and parents alike will enjoy the movie - for different reasons. Either way, its a very fun and different twist on a classic movie... and I'm always up for a Depp / Burton combination: "Wondrous....Charlie and the Chocolate Factory moves, like Dahl's original, in a straight line from one inspired set piece to the next..." New York Times - A. O. Scott (07/15/2005) "Tim Burton surrounds Depp with miraculous visuals of spun sugar and creeping menace. Their missionary lunacy is a treat for twisted children of all ages." Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (07/28/2005) "Depp deserves kudos for fashioning an original and outlandish if occasionally menacing character in CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY....[The film is] a marvel of rich, colorful design and flair."

Augustus Gloop Some Great Charlie & Chocolate Factory Quotes: Violet Beauregarde: [hugs Wonka] Mr.Wonka, I'm Violet Beauregarde. Willy Wonka: [Wonka looks at her terrified as she chews her gum] Oh. I don't care. Violet Beauregarde: Well, you should care because I'm the girl who's gonna win the special prize at the end. Willy Wonka: Well, you do seem confident and confidence is key. Veruca Salt: I'm Veruca Salt. It's very nice to meet you, sir. [does a curtsy] Willy Wonka: I always thought a verruca was a type of wart you got on the bottom of your foot. Ha. Augustus Gloop: [Augustus steps in front of Veruca] I'm Augustus Gloop. I love your chocolate. Willy Wonka: I can see that. So do I. I never expected to have so much in common. [Wonka stops and turns around to Mike] Willy Wonka: You, you're Mike Teavee. You're the little devil who cracked the system. [looks at Charlie] Willy Wonka: And you, you're just lucky to be here, aren't you?Read full review

Even though the VHS medium has been flaxed and seeded the overall viewing experience of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on VHS is still just as riveting as any other digital medium. The video quality isn't as apparent as in other mediums but the magic is still there and that's what counts and that's why i still buy VHS in 2019 going onto 2020.

I loved the original version of this movie but this version gives an interesting twist b/c everything isn't so happily ever after at the end. however, i really love the message that resonates throughout the film: home is where your heart is. Depp's portrayal of Wonka is unique and inventive. He may not be likable but he really isn't trying to be. There are a lot of deep themes through out the movie which may make it boring for younger audiences. But overall, a nice film to watch with your family.
My kids who now are 39 & 37 both grew up on willy Wonka & the Chocolate factory & now their kids love Charlie and the chocolate factory , I picked up a copy for 3 of my grankids who did not have it ,I keep 1 here . They enjoy everything about this movie ,and you can't say that about most movies today , that keeps the children's full attention ,and they love Johnny Depp playing Charlie,he does a great job.
I bought this for my step son for Christmas. He loves movies on vhs. He has autism and he absolutely loves this film!
