Me? Born and bred Oklahoman. I just recently watched this film on antenna tv. Ya know......these old westerns were nothing more than entertainment. Not to be analyzed under a microscope. Just watch and enjoy. Some say miscast actors....nah, just an old movie to enjoy. I say, pretty good. Probably much better in a theater in 1939. Just let it be what it is.
This movie is one of my favorites of all time. Coming out during my hugely formative late teen years, though what I was formed in to remains speculative, the aura of the cinematography, the haunting Leonard Cohen music, and the ultimate “tragedy" just wrap me in its spell. It IS spellbinding.

I can’t wait until all the Satan loving actors and actresses in Hollywood get exposed. Their 1000’s of great actors and actresses out there. Why is it always the same people who get chosen to act in Big $$ movies.
That uncle definitely had little-man energy. You can look at the wife and tell how controlling he is. Well, in his own house. Probably got smacked around at work and had to take it out on somebody and that somebody was always at home.
I saw this as a kid when it first came out and remember thinking it was really boring. I always remember this trailer and that car stunt at the end. I kinda want to revisit.
This film lacks any of the magic that the Gene Wilder film had; in fact, this film has no magic at all and Johnny Depp's Wonka is nothing like the Wonka described in the book; despite the fact that this film was supposed to be closer to the original book. Everything in the film is good until we get to Johnny Depp. All the visuals are amazing and it looks like the book has come to life; until we get to Johnny Depp. There's a good reason why this film has mostly been forgotten.
