Another Disney piece of crap! Walt would shudder.

Rating: 1/10 (15 June 2010)

I have loved Tim Burton from the earliest time on: "Brazil" is wonderful, so is "The Nightmare Before Christmas," and so are many of the wonderful collaborations he made with Johnny Depp- -another of my favorites--that come in between. But this is egregious feminist twaddle that has as much to do with Lewis Carroll's Wonderland as Gumby has to do with nuclear physics, i.e., nothing at all. While it's visually stunning, and it is that, the story line is such a perversion that this film can only rank with "Pocahontas" as the rankest of polemic crap.
While I absolutely believe in the power of women to achieve great things, Linda Woolverton's screenplay makes me realize anew that talent is a minor component of Hollywood success. You want to write a story about girl power? Fine! But don't f*** with a story I love.
