It’s like: Alice in Wonderland 2.0 meets the mind of Tim Burton
Stars you’d know: Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway
Their tagline: You’ve got a very important date.
The Good: The visuals were interesting…it made me wonder, “how’d they do that”, which I guess you really don’t want to do while you’re watching the movie…Depp was entertaining as always, and I was even entertained by Carter.
The Bad: There is no plot, besides “what would happen if Alice falls down the rabbit hole when she’s older”. There is no real action. There really isn’t even enough color, at least for a Tim Burton film. And the 3-D? It really is a phase and you don’t need it to see this movie.
The Final Word: Alice in Wonderland left me wondering why I’d pay extra to see another 3-D film that didn’t need it, and made me wonder if Tim Burton was getting soft. I wouldn’t recommend seeing this movie, not even on Netflix. I’m sure it was a blast to film and edit, but the energy in the storyline is lost.
