Summary: Sickeningly sweet and slow
All the plot lines in this film are very straightforward and obvious... no curve balls here! The emphasis on chocolate is way overdone, and by the end of the film, you're fucking sick of chocolate. My stomach felt upset just watching this! Johnny Depp performs well in his small part, but overall I couldn't care much for the characters. The mayor's character was far too predictable. I have no idea why this movie was nominated for an academy award.
