3 out of 5. Not bad, great visuals but, even though it's not a "remake", the Gene Wilder version is much better. A lot sweeter and more magical.
Burton sure has a thing for daddy didn't love me stories. Depp is good, but someone mentioned he reminded them of Michael Jackson and he did a bit, that and a woman. Very odd portrayal.
It's worth seeing once, but it's just not a great movie. Good, eerie at times.
Also, you can't understand the Oompha Loompha (sp?)'s songs at all.
