Watch Free Charlie And The Chocolate Factory

by Mindy Hernandez

Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory have been well adapted into a movie by the same name by the competent director Tim Burton. The movie is targeted towards the kids and the young adults but is well watched by the adults too. Freddie Highmore stars as Charlie Bucket while Johnny Depp is Willy Wonka in the movie.

Charlie had a difficult childhood as he lived in abject poverty with his parents and four grand parents who are all bed ridden. They love each other very much but find it difficult to meet their living due to want of finances. The town in which they lived had a chocolate factory owned by the eccentric Willy Wonka. One day Willy announced that he has hidden five golden tickets inside the Wonka bars. The five lucky ones would get to see the chocolate factory and how it works and one lucky winner is supposed to get a special prize.

Charlie was really lucky as he found the fifth ticket in one of the Wonka bars. He chose his Grandpa Joe to be with him inside the factory. Joe used to work with the factory before it hit rough weather. So the four winners, Charlie and Grandpa Joe enter the factory for the journey of a lifetime.

Charlie was pretty well behaved throughout the tour but the same cannot be said of the other children. They were very naughty and the inevitable happened. Those four were politely shown the door by Willy and Charlie became the winner of the surprise prize - they keys to the chocolate factory. Initially Charlie refused the prize as he was not in favor of staying separate from his family. Wonka too understood how he himself has missed his family while he was too busy with the chocolate factory. He understood that Charlie is the right person to take care of the chocolate factory. On realizing this he allowed Charlie to bring his entire family inside the premises. So we get a wonderful story with a very happy ending.

The film is a big hit with the children. After a long time the children has some good movie to look forward to. We can safely say that despite the insipid performance by Johnny Depp the film manages to set the cash registers ringing. Depp should have given a much better performance but he looks totally disinterested for the better part of the movie.

Freddie Highmore justifies his selection as Charlie Bucket. In fact, all the other actors do reasonably well. David Kelly as Grandpa Joe is really good and blends with the children inside the factory and all other scenes.

This is a great movie which you should never miss. You can watch Charlie and the Chocolate factory online free without the hassles of renting a DVD or going to the nearest theater.
