I'm going to give this movie 10 Stars because it deserves it ! Right from the outset it grabs your interest with something other movies have lacked for the past few years now and thats simply an interest. Its far from a documentary or docu-drama, it's about a man's total passion for speed, an adventure that takes him round the world in a most humble adventure to kick some American arse! Anthony Hopkin's should get several awards for this one, I wont call him old yet but he's going to make a fantastic elderly actor when he does get old. Better have the tissues ready too, because this one will make you cry as you take the journey and share this mans passion.
This is a movie to be forgotten, don't even think of seeing it. It is a disgraceful remake of one of this centuries best movies. The changes and deletions from the original detract so painfully that no present day special effects and fancy ideas can mend it. Depp, you sure made a mistake taking this part. Freddie Highmore, I wish a great future, charming on screen presence. When will Director's and Producers of today actually realise that there back-room thinking never comes to fruition on the big screen. If you want to endeavor this one right, you simply start with Gene Wilder and Peter Ostrum and bring the Wonka Factory into the Present Day, you simply cannot go wrong.
Damn fine movie. Will keep you guessing all the way till the end, and perhaps you'll choose not to believe anyways. I was glued to this movie from start to finish, the King will always live on in peoples memories won't he.
