"Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"

... or "Charlie et la chocolaterie," as it's called in this glowing French-language review. Lots of praise heaped on Tim Burton, Danny Elfman, and Johnny Depp, with praise left over for Helena Bonham Carter and Christopher Lee, who the reviewer notes has been hard at work, appearing in all the recent blockbusters.

Personally, I'm a little iffy about Tim Burton's style; it's often too odd and cold for my conventional tastes. He's not quirky the way John Cusack is quirky, see. But this review makes me think I might want to see the movie whenever it finally pops up in Korea.
