This version is just as good as the classic. There were some differences and similarities, but I looked beyond them. What made the Johnny Depp version more enjoyable is the music of renowned composer Danny Elfman.

Johnny Depp really surprised me with his take on Willy Wonka; and the kids, including Freddie Highmore and AnnaSophia Robb were a great support as well. It's hard to decide which version of author Roald Dahl's classic book adaptation is better.

If I had to choose between the two, I think they're both equally terrific.
