These Are the Most Overrated Movies of All Time

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Following up on one of the most charming, thoughtful, and memorable movies of the 1990s, the modern iteration of (Willy Wonka) Charlie and the Chocolate Factory left a lot to be desired. It's not the same heartfelt family film that people were expecting, and critics seemed to put on nostalgia blinders to keep that out of their minds. Johnny Depp did a good job of playing the mad scientist behind the suspicious sweets, but some critics found the characters to lack depth, and the cinematography overbore the plot, which was the driving force behind the original.
