I preferred the Oompa Loompas in the first film, but appreciated the Britishness of the second.

Actually, I found the Americanisms jarring. Like why there were two Americans who didn't appear to be tourists randomly standing in an suburban sweetshop, why everyone was using dollars, and Grandpa George telling Charlie to get the mud off his "pants".
I'm really picking silly holes in this film, and I suppose it does have more to do with the book than the original...
Frankly, in any film, I'd rather they just threw out the source material and made it
well than try to adhere to something and make silly mistakes.
