I loved the movie when I saw it in the theater. It's one of the better Tim Burton movies in my opinion. The one thing I didn't like was all the children in the theater. Not because they were noisy, they weren't...but it's a TIM BURTON MOVIE!!! I've never considered him child appropriate...especially his version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Of course, there is less likelyhood of permenant mental scarring than with another great Johnny Depp movie...Sweeny Todd...yes, there were toddlers there!
