Charlie and the Chocolate Factory review: Every gamer knows the history of movie tie-in games and their dreadful track record, so whenever a new one comes along it’s nigh impossible to not feel some degree of skepticism no matter who developed the game or what movie it’s based on. Case in point, when the recent Charlie and the Chocolate Factory game based on Tim Burton’s recent film interpretation of Roald Dahl’s classic book showed up for review I anticipated the worst, especially considering the movie itself was nothing to go gaga over. To my surprise however, the game isn’t nearly as terrible as I expected it to be, though it’s certainly no gem mind you, and packs just enough entertainment value to engage fans of the movie and/or storyline in general for at least a solid rental period.
