The delightfully quirky Wonkahits streaming this month, so you can see for yourself why we named it one of the best movies of 2023. The film earned Timothée Chalamet, who plays a young and bright-eyed Willy Wonka in the prequel, a Golden Globe nomination for his interpretation of the iconic character. Not to mention, it was a box office hit, earning over $600 million worldwide.

Directed by Paul King, the brilliant mind behind Paddingtonand Paddington 2, Wonkaalso stars Sally Hawkins, Rowan Atkinson, Olivia Colman, and Keegan-Michael Key. Here's all the nitty gritty details you need to know to watch Wonkafrom the comfort of your couch.

What is Wonka about?

As Mashable's film editor Kristy Puchko puts it, "the plotline is outrageous." Wonkafollows a young Willy (Chalamet) who dreams of opening his own chocolate shop one day. However, he has a few barriers in his way: an evil chocolate cartel, a corrupt police chief, and a conniving landlady. To make his chocolate dreams a reality, he teams up with a wise-beyond-her-years orphan named Noodle and an eccentric Oompa-Loompa named Lofty (Hugh Grant). Oh, and did I mention it's a full-blown musical?

"Wonkashouldn't work, but it does," says Puchko in her review of the film. "The narrative's audaciousness is a feature, not a glitch."

Peep the official trailer for a glimpse into the whimsical world of Wonka.

Is Wonka a remake?

Wonkais not a remake nor a sequel to 1971's Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. It also has no ties to 2005's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory— although Chalamet does resemble Johnny Depp more than he does Gene Wilder. Wonkais actually an origin story for the eponymous candy-making extraordinaire, adapted largely from the 1964 children's book Charlie and the Chocolate Factoryby Roald Dahl.

Is Wonka worth watching?

Despite the internet's merciless mocking of the Timothée Chalamet-led film, it managed to secure an 82 percent critic rating and 91 percent audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It also secured Chalamet a Golden Globe nomination and blew up the box office. Even if you're a skeptic, it's worth watching and judging for yourself.

"Full of humor, heart, madcap music, and fantastic fun, Wonka is an absolute delight, sure to entertain the whole family — even the curmudgeons snarking at its existence," writes Puchko in her review of the film.

Paying for a monthly Max subscription (with ads) will run you $9.99 per month. You can easily sign up for a month to watch Wonka, then cancel, if that's your cup of tea. However, if you're looking for more bang for your buck, you can save about 17% if you opt for the annual subscription instead. An annual plan will run you $99.99 per year, which breaks down to only $8.33 per month instead. You will have to watch a few ads during your streaming sessions, but it could certainly be worse.

Can't bear to have your viewing experience interrupted by ads? You'll want to sign up for one of the higher tiers — Max Ad-Free or Max Ultimate. The best option, in our humble opinion, is to go with the Max Ad-Free annual subscription for $149.99. That's 22% in savings compared to paying $15.99 per month. For cinephiles seeking the best viewing experience possible, however, the Max Ultimate subscription is probably best. It also offers an ad-free viewing experience, plus 4K Ultra HD video quality, Dolby Atmos immersive audio, the ability to stream on two more devices at once, and 70 more downloads. It's also a bit more per month at $19.99 or per year at $199.99 (save 17%).

At one point, there were multiple ways to get a free trial of Max before committing to a subscription. However, most of those free trials have disappeared. The only way to currently get a taste of Max before subscribing to a plan is to sign up for a DirecTV Stream package (starting at $79.99 per month). The DirecTV Stream Entertainment package gives you three free months of Max (as well as other premium channels), so you can see what it has to offer before pulling the trigger. It's certainly not the most affordable way to watch Wonka, but if you're in the market for a cable replacement service, DirecTV Stream offers a ton of long-term value with over 75 live channels.
