Pure and clear TimBurton

Just finished watching the rest of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" from yesterday. Compared with the initial expectations, I am generally disappointed after reading it. But this does not mean that the film is useless or of poor quality. On the contrary, it is worth seeing, especially if parents can take their children to watch it together. Chocolate's speech is definitely much more convincing. The five children who were invited to visit the chocolate factory were obviously carefully set up. The first is a disgusting fat guy who always eats, the second is a rich girl who gets whatever he wants, the third is a trophy girl who is so ambitious that she even holds the world chewing gum record, and the fourth is The scientific baby with super IQ and self-righteous, the fifth one is our male number one-Charlie. His family is poor, but the whole family lives together, loves each other, and knows how to consider each other. Little Charlie also has this precious quality of putting family affection first and not the annoying character of the top four children. It is naturally unfair to say that children are annoying, so the film allows every child to take a family member to visit. In this way, it is clear at a glance, what kind of children will be born under what kind of family guidance.
This film continues Tim Burton's usual style-magical imagination. Especially the little black people in the factory. The creative limelight of little black people even overshadows the overall fantasy chocolate factory creativity. The little black man makes the whole film permeated with fairy tale color, and it is that kind of lively fairy tale. Tim Burton's videos are always like this, and there are some things that surprise you. For example, I watched "Edward Scissorhands" earlier, and now "Bigfish" and "Corpse Bride". I deeply like each one. Especially "bigfish". I even thought it was a film about immortality. In the river of time, how do we stay alive like a big fish? This inexhaustible vitality will make us live forever. Including "Chocolate Factory", in these films, Tim Burton tells the story with a childlike vision.
From the pale Edward Scissorhands, to the weak groom, to the neurotic Willie Wonka, Johnny Depp seems to be Tim Burton's favorite actor. Although the roles that Johnny portrays in these TIM movies have something in common, that is, loneliness and simplicity, Johnny is indeed a very flexible actor. Even in Tim's kingdom, he also filmed "Headless Sleepy Hollow" and "Edwood Biography" (I haven't watched it yet), not to mention his role as Pirates of the Caribbean. As far as he is concerned, he can turn from a manic rock musician in his early years to a gentle and good master. When watching a movie, it is easy to feel that the British accent is a thousand times stronger than the American accent. Because Johnny Depp also has a British accent.
