    Storyline

    Edit
    When Willy Wonka decides to let five children into his chocolate factory, he decides to release five golden tickets in five separate chocolate bars, causing complete mayhem. The tickets start to be found, with the fifth going to a very special boy, called Charlie Bucket. With his Grandpa, Charlie joins the rest of the children to experience the most amazing factory ever. But not everything goes to plan within the factory. —FilmFanUK

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Forty squirrels were trained for the scene where they pounce upon Veruca Salt (Julia Winter) in the nut-shelling room.
    • Goofs
      When Willy Wonka is having his shoes polished by Charlie, the crew is reflected in his black sunglasses.
    • Quotes

      Willy Wonka: Do you like my meadow? Try some of my grass! Please have a blade, please do, it's so delectable and so darn good looking!

      Charlie Bucket: You can eat the grass?

      Willy Wonka: Of course you can! Everything in this room is eatable, even *I'm* eatable! But that is called "cannibalism," my dear children, and is in fact frowned upon in most societies.

    • Crazy credits
      At the very end of the movie the WB logo comes up followed by the Oompa Loompas' giggling.
    • Alternate versions
      The HD-DVD and PAL Blu-Ray versions are slightly extended. This version is also rumored to have been shown on television. These scenes are extra dialogue between Mr. Teavee and Mr. Salt, Mike Teavee saying "Back off, you little freaks!" to an Oompa-Loompa, and extra lines in Augustus Gloop's Oompa-Loompa song.

    Tim Burton's awesome.
    A severely underrated movie that stays faithful to the book, while adding enough to justify its existence and features an amusingly eccentric performance from Johnny Depp
