Alice in wonderland meets "The Chronicles of Narnia"

Rating: 6/10 (10 June 2010)

I loved the original "Alice in Wonderland" book of Lewis Carroll. I also liked the adaptation made by Disney in 1951, and the dark version made by Jan Svankmajer in 1988. And Tim Burton, being a very talented filmmaker seemed to be (At first) the best choice for director for adapting one of the most influential fantasy books ever written.
However, the final result is somewhat disappointing, mostly because this is not one literal-adaptation, but a completely new story inspired in the original tale. But, to be completely honest, the result wasn't entirely bad.
Actually,I consider that "Alice in Wonderland" was a decent, entertaining film for the whole family. But a more one faithful adaptation of the original story would have been something much better.
This version done by Tim Burton is closer to "The Chronicles of Narnia" rather than the original book, but it still worked very well. It was very funny to watch, like most of the films directed Tim Burton (Despite the ugly and unappealing CGI) and all the actors make a great work with their new version of the classic characters.
Don't expect this to be a faithful adaptation of the original book, otherwise you will be very disappointed.
