We’re indulging our sweet tooths (or sweet teeth?) with the origin story of everyone’s favorite candy man! Join Timothée Chalamet as young Willy Wonka for the tale of chocolate, conspiracy, and creepy little orange men, along with a cast of assorted oddballs and character actors. Directed by Paddington and Paddington 2 helmer Paul King and produced by David Heyman, who just took over co-producing the Bond franchise, this film was sweetly received by audiences, who treated it to over half a billion at the box office. But are our hosts sweet on the early adventures of the candy man made famous by Gene Wilder? Or does this saccharine prequel leave us with a toothache?
