There are movies out there? Really? Who’d have thunk? Well. That’s not entirely true. (; I have been to the movies in the last couple of months. Once. I went to see ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ with a friend of mine. I was really wary, actually, because I really enjoyed the original ‘Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory’ that came out in the ‘70’s. But - I admit. It was utterly fantastic. Much closer to the book - which I read in high school. Johnny Depp was utterly amazing as Willy Wonka. He seriously vanished into the character. For most of the movie, I couldn’t find any Depp in him at all. There was an occasional moment - but, overall, he did a fantastic job.
For other movies - my mom says ‘Batman Begins’ is really good, so I’ll probably go see that. And I’ve got mixed feelings about ‘War of the Worlds’. I’m not a Tom Cruise fan. I’m really just - not. And the mixed reviews aren’t helping either. Anyone got any thoughts on it? Good, bad, indifferent?
