Average Fare...

Rating: 4/10 (12 March 2010)

This Legendary Filmmaker has made remarkable films in the past, to name One or Two would be injustice, he's made great films throughout his career. I being a Tim Burton fan from childhood was super-super-excited about 'Alice In Wonderland'. Unfortunately, this ranks amongst Burton's weakest effort to date.
'Alice In Wonderland' is boring, it lacks the pace. Plus, why making this a 3-D flick, it would've been much more better minus that. The film has an boring start, an okay middle & an ordinary end. The cult cartoon doesn't get it's due here. It's shocking to know that a guy like Tim Burton made such ordinary stuff. His body of work has got a lot of gold medals, but 'Alice In Wonderland' is no-where a gold-medal type effort.
The Graphics are good, but now we're tired of appreciating Graphics again and again. 'Avatar' had a the best of visuals and script. This one lacks a solid script, which is it's biggest flaw.
Performance-Wise: Johnny Depp delivers a dynamic performance. He gives The Mad Hatter a different style altogether. Helena Bonham Carter is superb as the Red Queen. Mila as Alice does a fair job. Anne Hathaway is wasted.
'Alice In Wonderland' is at best an average effort. This one's a colossal disappointment from one of the finest filmmakers of Cinema!
