Alright, this film is supposed to be based on the book.  Although Gene Wilder was brilliant in the 70's version, Johnny Depp is only only actor right now who can be a little kooky and yet not over the top on the antics.  He is a little bit crazy...and that's the basis of the Willy Wonka character, he is a little crazy.  Incase those who haven't read the book don't know, there is a Wonka father character.  The 70's movie was good, but not very true to the book.
