Wonka Ratings & Reviews
- CubaneApril 4, 2026That's what you get for not reading the terms and conditions. A timotheée chateau billiard wonkass slop fest that is about as corporate and soulless as it gets.
- VarunOctober 19, 2024An acceptable film that plays it too safe. Wonka is too positively whimsical, and when this movie is touting itself as a prequel, they should’ve written a more unhinged version of him. Timothée Chalamet is fine in the role but isn’t exactly captivating. The movie is way too gray for a Willy Wonka film, there’s very few scenes that are filled with colour so it’s missing a lot of magic which kills the desire to be transported into the world. The Oompa Loompa did not work for me either and Hugh Grant admitted and even looks like he didn’t enjoy playing the character. Most of the musicals were smartly written and enjoyable, some were a miss, but Chalemet’s voice isn’t powerful enough to entrance you. All the other actors did a great job portraying their characters. This movie has a decent and pleasant story you could watch with the kids but nothing special to write home about. There was one final scene of Wonka reading a short and simple message from his mom that did almost bring a tear to my eye.
- ChaoskillerMarch 25, 2026Thought Timothée Chalamet Wonka was spot on. I really enjoyed this movie.
- gas station pump lighterMarch 11, 2025i love it
- ርልዪረFebruary 12, 2025I’m old enough to remember the original we watched every year at Christmas and Johnny Depp made a fun Wonka. This prequel is hilarious, it’s fun with some fantastic actors. The songs are catchy and hilarious. Hugh Grant is so good in it, it’s beyond belief.
- mickerdooDecember 10, 2025Struck the right tone for the story. Most of the songs were good. Design was fantastical. Just felt Chalamet's singing was underwhelming.
- CravanThePugilistMarch 15, 2026I was terrified about this movie. I thought "This is going to ruin amazing legacy & suck some balls, dude." I was very happy to be proven wrong. Chalamet is just so charming in his role, I'm not sure how we can back out of liking it.
