Tim Burton Shines Again!

Rating: 9/10 (18 June 2010)

Tim Burton keeps on making great movie after great movie. He never stops at doing that. Every Burton movie I've ever seen are very darn good close to perfection. His trademark of great visuals are evident in this movie. The land of Alice is just breathtaking. I really loved the final battle scene during the end where the battle takes place on a checkerboard.
Alice is about to marry some dude she doesn't care for. She escapes from that moment and falls down a hole. She ends up in a mystical land where everyone believes that she's the one to slay the Jabberwocky, an evil dragon-like character. But, she believe she's the wrong Alice.
The acting is great. This is the first Disney movie I have seen with a female as the main character. She certainly shined. My only complaint had to be with Johnny Depp and the Mad Hatter. I had to watch this movie twice to finally understand the role of the Mad Hatter. Of course, Helena Bonham Carter is fantastic as the Red Queen.
Overall, this is a great fantasy movie. I recommend this to all people especially fans of the original Alice works and Johnny Depp. I rate this film 9/10.
