Charlie & The Chocolate Factory

Went out to catch a movie with Ash, Cat & Mic. Before that I had a quick bite at BK, to try their new cheese burger with jalapeno chillies. Never expect it to be green chilli!! Overall, it was ok nothing great, but it had an interesting taste, because burgers aren't something one normally eats with green chillies!

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

*Possible Spoiler*

I wished i had a chance to re-read the book before watching the movie, but sadly i didn't.
I felt the movie was OK, nothing really exciting happened because the plot mostly followed the book, although they added a part in about Willy Wonka's father. It was interesting to know "how" Willy Wonka came about, but it seems like every movie nowadays is explaining about the character's background (spiderman, batman). I liked the scenes as they were all very storytale like, colourful and creative.

3 things that got stuck in my brain

1. The Oompah Loompah were Copied and Pasted in every scene! Think the director was try to save money or something hehe.

2. I lurved the attention to detail, even Willy Wonka's shoe base had the Willy Wonka logo on it! I thought it was really cute that Willy Wonka and his Dad both wore squeeky rubber gloves.

3. The giant sugar/salt shakers that shook "snow" onto Charlie's house at the last scene.
