Pros: Visually fun. Well cast. Good A/V.
Cons: Stumbles through its prolonged final act

Tim Burton's adaptation of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory will not likely supercede the 1971 adaptation in the hearts and minds of film buffs.  That being said, it does manage to provide a fresh spin on the material with a good deal of eye (wait for it...) candy illustrating the sympatico sensibilities of Burton and Dahl.  It is presented on Blu-ray with the same excellent video quality as the 2006 HD DVD release and a welcome upgrade to lossless Dolby TrueHD audio.  All of the extras from the HD DVD are also carried over, and they are plentiful in number and modest in depth.
