Johnny Depp + Tim Burton = a fun film.

Rating: 7/10 (11 January 2011)

Welcome to a creepy fantasy world, courtesy of director Tim Burton and his favorite actor Johnny Depp. While some might be growing tired of the Burton/Depp combo, I am not, the unquestionable talent Depp brings to every role is a big plus in this film. Depp makes even the most ridiculous character come alive and seem believable. The visuals in this film are nothing short of fantastic, even when they are not in 3D (Hollywood knock it off with the 3D crap, it's an annoying and expensive gimmick.) Much like The Wizard of Oz, the fantastic characters found in Wonderland are reflections of people Alice knows in the real world. The wicked Queen of Hearts, Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dumb, The Knave of Hearts, The Cheshire Cat, The Catterpiller, The Mad Hatter, The Rabbit, and the cast of my favorite poem, The Jabberwocky, all are wonderfully done amid a sea of stunning visuals and a magical story.
