My watch history
Wonka
Good bits: Calah Lane was wonderful, there were some very nice callbacks in the score to the original, the sets were uniformly good, and almost every scene with Hugh Grant was fun.
Bad bits: Timothée Chalamet doesn’t really do whimsical and doesn’t bring much to the musical front; the original songs were mostly forgettable; the plot was dull and predictable; Matt Lucas exists.
