-1 star for the blatant racism and fatphobia making it near unreadable. I knew this one would be rough, but damn. Fatphobia galore and happy colonized slaves - and lets not forget these are the censored oompa loompas. The story is a classic, but even with reworking some of these aspects are hard to ignore to appreciate the story underneath.
