10 Acclaimed Movies Everybody Now Hates

10. Charlie And The Chocolate Factory

Yes, once upon a time people liked this movie.

Tim Burton's take on the beloved Roald Dahl used a huge amount of its screentime of almost two hours to show Johnny Depp parading as an extremely erratic version of Willy Wonka, riddled with surreal and completely made up flashbacks concerning Wonka's childhood and relationship with his father.

For many, it was just a bit too bonkers, with the general opinion being that Gene Wilder's take on the character in the 70s was a far more nuanced portrayal of how Wonka "should" be. Wilder stated he couldn't bring himself to watch Depp's version of the character, out of fear he would "be disappointed in him" based on the promotional material.

But believe it or not, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory received raves from critics upon its release in 2005, and audiences seemed to revel in it too, making it the eighth-highest grossing film of the year and giving it an A- CinemaScore. Critics praised Depp's bonkers portrayal as being a bizarre case of classic Burton-esqe charm, and many thought this new take on the character to be a must-see.

Needless to say, most people you ask now will just recommend the 1971 version and nothing else.
