Review Time: this film is excellent.

News reports/Cultural elements/Fundamental core: the audience has these news reports keeping everyone up-to-date on the search for these golden tickets, the cultural elements are based on the fact that these characters come from different backgrounds, moving on the fundamental core to this project works really well [there are some place jumps and time jumps,] when this film goes from day to night or the other way around.

Musical numbers/Comedy level: they are always fantastic fun to hear and they are well placed throughout this film and the comedy level is good-natured, my favourite two comedy scenes are these: the first one is this person has asked this computer a question, but because this computer is intelligent it will not give the answer to this question, so this man ends up getting very angry and the second scene is where this auction is taking place [that is as much as I can tell you,] because it is only a short scene.

Artistic visions: they are amazing around every corner there is always something to see or to experience [I am not going to go on about the artistic visions for too long,] because if you haven't seen this film already I just don't want to give too much away. But I can say this; the imagination shown in this title is of the highest qualities indeed.

Cast: the children performers all do a great job and most of the adult do good as well, but Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka he makes this character is very own and I will even go one more step and say whomever tries to bring this film back for another remake or reboot [I am not saying they will, I'm just saying if they do,] they will have big shoes to fill, because Wilder really does understand the balance in the mind-set of this character, meaning sometimes he is calm and intelligent with dialogue exchanges to match, while other times he can be intense and leaning toward madness. But the most interesting thing about this performance and this version of this character is this; you cannot have one side of his character's personality without the other, because both sides of his personality keep him balanced in the world of his creation and design, not forgetting sometimes his mind-set is in the middle using elements from each side, to have conversations or questions or any comment that he doesn't want to reply to [or if he does it is usually with a short comment or something that doesn't make crystal clear sense,] and on top of that how quickly and naturally he rotates from one mind-set to another with ease is just great fun to watch.

This film receives: 93% approval, now as far as I'm concerned this film has stood the test of time and should be seen once in your life, but there is one scene where there is this moment or these moments where I cannot hear comfortably what is being said I am not going to bring up any of the other performer or performers in this scene or sequence, but there is this one character's comments or questions or anything other that should come out of this character's mouth they are somewhat distracting, on a side note how is it Grampa Joe is able to get out of bed after such a long time [yes at first he does struggle,] but the next day he is able to walk around normally. I am thinking he would need some kind of physiotherapy for some time, before he is able to walk around normally [I am just pointing this out] and just before I finish yes I am aware of the remake of this film released in 2005.
