Young Charlie Bucket (Peter Ostrum) wins one of the coveted 'Golden Tickets' from a Wonka Bar that allows its holder to take a trip around the eccentric Willy Wonka's (Gene Wilder) Chocolate Factory. Charlie and the rest of the winners find themselves in a magical world of chocolate rivers, Oompa Loompas, everlasting gobstoppers, lickable wall-paper, golden egg-laying geese and chilling tales to warn children not to misbehave. Roald Dahl wrote the screenplay from his own book. Review: Timeless, great movie. - Bought this for my grandson who is reading Charlie and Chocolate Factory in school. HE LOVED IT! So did I. I've seen it a dozen time and will probably see it again a dozen more. Never get tired of it. Great movie. Review: Wonderful adventure, imo suitable for neuro-atypicals - Marvelous for children and the young at heart. Fun extra features. For people who are neuro-atypicals like me, a very safe and soothing adventure with wonderful message. Lack of diversity in the cast might put some people off, that's my only critique, but it was made in the early 1970s. Gene Wilder is one of my all-time favorite actors.

Wonderful adventure, imo suitable for neuro-atypicals
Marvelous for children and the young at heart. Fun extra features. For people who are neuro-atypicals like me, a very safe and soothing adventure with wonderful message. Lack of diversity in the cast might put some people off, that's my only critique, but it was made in the early 1970s. Gene Wilder is one of my all-time favorite actors.

Buy this one, not the remake.
Way better than the remake. And by way better, I mean that there's no competition. Johnny Depp is a great actor but it's kind of insulting to have anyone portray a part that Gene Wilder mastered.

Classic To Own
So very glad we now own this classic movie. The new Burton version is stellar, however the original is brilliant! Was delivered in great shape & on time!

One of my most favorite childhood movies
One of my most favorite childhood movies, and to see it so clearly and vivid with the Blu-Ray makes a difference you can see. One wants to share this movie with generations to come.
