This haunting adaptation of the beloved Roald Dahl novel of the same name traverses heavy subject matters, from tragedy to a family's reconciliation, all against the candy-coated backdrop of Willy Wonka's (Johnny Depp) chocolate factory. The film chronicles Wonka's attempts to find a worthy heir to run his factory as he approaches retirement. A wonderfully weird and eccentric child favourite, the cinematography and costume design are top-notch. Also, if you didn't dress as an Oompa Loompa at least once on 31 Oct. as a child, have you really experienced Halloween?
