Watched this with the wife and we really enjoyed it.
Funny and charming.
You can switch the chocolate with drugs and this is a gangster film:lolbron::russ:
Dude was hustling with a gang, flooding the streets with his product, running from the cops and fighting off a vicious chocolate cartel:mjlol:

I liked it. It felt a lil too long and started to lose me near the end. And the vfx were awful but I'm not mad I saw it

Can't believe I actually loved this. Hot take: this was borderline a Black movie.
Fun Fact
Dahl's widow said that Charlie was originally written as "a little black boy." Dahl's biographer said the change to a white character was driven by Dahl's agent, who thought a black Charlie would not appeal to readers

I really enjoyed this. More than I thought I would. That boy can actually hold a note. The little black girl that was his sidekick was really cute but she couldn't act. It didn't matter though once she started singing. She really was a standout singer and their songs and numbers together were really heartwarming. Key is always a treat to watch. That man deserves his own movie. All around a good message and fun time. 8/10 for me.
