Gene Wilder brings life, spirit, & horror to this fantastical adventure.
Charlie Bucket is a poor young boy who lives with his mother and 4 grandparents. He finds out about Willly Wonka's contest: five golden tickets have been hidden in Wonka bars across the globe, and the people who find them get to visit the mysterious factory. 4 nasty kids find them and Charlie's hope is temporarily crushed as one man claims to have found the last one-but it turns out to be a fake and Charlie finds the real one.
Gene Wilder does a comically wonderful job as Willy Wonka, if he does get a little creepy sometimes (those who saw the boat ride scene get my drift). Many consider this movie to be superior to the recent Tim Burton remake.
From alex92sing: Don't forget this movie has great kid actors. Please see this movie!!!
