Based on the eccentric central character of the well-known story “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”, this movie follows a young Willy Wonka that arrives in a city renowned for its sweets, with the dream of opening his first chocolate shop. But the ambitions of the dreamy confectionery genius soon get stunted when he not only inadvertently falls into the hands of an unscrupulous landlady, but also discovers that the town is firmly in the grip of an evil chocolate cartel…
In this year’s summer movie, we spirit you away into a fantastical world full of sugary sweets. In this prequel to the famous children´s book by Roald Dahl, director Paul King chose to forgo the darker edges of the original story and instead created a more positive look on the world-famous chocolatier. The result is a fantastic adventure, that manages to enchant the viewer with its spectacle and humor, in no small part thanks to the performance of lead actor Timothée Chalamet, who portrays the titular character with an innocent charm and quirkiness that you can´t help but love. In the spirit of the previous film adaptations, “Wonka” is also a musical film.
So, grab your favorite treats, hold your golden ticket ready and join us under the night sky as we dive into a world of sugar and cocoa. (SL)
