@cbcnews: Wonka, starring Timothée Chalamet, is a prequel — but it entirely misses the point of the original Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, says CBC’s Eli Glasner. “The reason why that movie from 1971 has stood the test of time is because, like so many children’s classics, it’s not all bubblegum and nice stuff,” he said. Wonka is overly sweet and saccharine, missing both the sharp edges of the original plot and the darker side of Willy Wonka, he added. #Wonka #TimotheeChalamet #Movies
