5.0 out of 5 stars Very Fun ! ! !, July 24, 2005

A Kid's Review

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Video Game)

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is very fun. Also it is challenging and much more descriptive than the movie. For example in the movie,you don't know how Augustus got out of the fudge pipe. In the game, you get him out.You don't know how Violet got juiced. In the game, you juice her.You don't know how Veruca got out of the garbage chute. In the game you get her out.You Don't know how Mike got pulled,but in the game, you get him out of the TV. There are levels just like the movie, except 2 or 3. It is a very good travel game. This game is a 10 out of 10.

My son hasn't put this down since he got it. He's 6 years old and loves this game. It's easy for him to understand how to get to the next levels and the animation on this game are really great!! Even my 12 and 10 year old daughters love playing this game. I strongly suggest it!

This review is from: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Video Game)

I have saw this movie 3 times at the theater now and I sincerely wanted to love this game when I bought it. I can honestly say the game feels ancient in it's gameplay. You basically go from point A to point B without much in between. Very repetitive I must say with all of the things you have to do. Graphics are excellent though providing lipsmacking eye candy. Overall though, the game simply feels dated and it could have been much better than it is. See the movie pass on the game, or rent it if you can for the visual feast.
