Decent watch, probably won't watch again, but could recommend for a younger audience. There just isn't enough here for an older audience. Maybe parents will get a kick out of seeing this and imagining their kids....but given the amount of sibling infighting, probably not. Alan Cumming absolutely steals the show with his Willy Wonka impersonation, and I'm furious that he didn't get the role over Depp when they did the reboot. The casts is odd, but does a great performance, and the kids having to fight themselves really did a great job. It's probably still has good than bad, but just can't say you should watch this right now with all the options out there.
