This film directed by Tim Burton is based on a children's book by Roald Dahl. It is set in a chocolate factory and it stars Johnny Depp, who plays the part of the factory owner. The amin character is a boy called Charlie. The acting is great and the plot is exciting. I loved the soundtrack, which was composed by Danny Elfman.

Tropic Thunder is a 2008 American action satire comedy film produced, directed and starred by Ben Stiller. Is was made to tease the most famous war films and the Hollywood star-system.

The main characters are a group of actors, engaged to make a great war film based on the  memoir of the Vietnam veteran John "Four Leaf" Tayback (Tropic Thunder). But soon the film turned into the real life: the five actors are alone in a Vietnam forest, and must face a gang of heroine-producers. Misunderstandings, lies and a lot of adrenaline, will take an unexpected final …

Many famous actors starred in the film.

It is a very unusual film, full of action and parody. The plot is imaginative, but it isn’t suitable for all ages and all likings.
