![]() Nevertheless, the 1971 film is so much better. ![]() The best choices were to remove the dentist subplot and Wonka's backstory.Ĭharlie is toned down, which is nice, but the other kids cannot be salvaged.Īlso, did anyone else remember Helena Bonham Carter in this? Surprised me. They add nothing except bad musical interludes that interrupt the flow. The Oompa Loompa songs are awful and can be cut out entirely. Lots of things I dislike have been removed, but I don't think it went far enough. The pacing improved considerably with the cuts, making it easier to get through. If anything, I think more exposition with subtitles could have benefited the aesthetic. I liked the subtitle exposition because it feels authentic to the source. The visual quality is mediocre at times and could be fine-tuned with better sources. ![]() It's been years since I saw this film so I used this to reintroduce myself to it. ![]()
