Loved this film!

Rating: 10/10 (14 March 2010)

I knew going into this film that it would not be the same Alice story that Lewis Carroll wrote, but rather a reinterpretation of the story. SyFy did their own modern day version of Alice that had a similar feel to it as well, but not quite as fantastical. I truly enjoyed Tim Burton's take on the story, and can't see how anyone wouldn't fall in love with it. The writing was excellent, the graphics vivid, the costumes to die for. And the story itself has such parallels with the real world itself. It just takes an intuitive mind to read into the story enough to see them. It's not just Alice in Wonderland. It's Alice in Underland, the land underneath everything. It's just a brilliant film, and the 3D aspect makes it literally pop off the screen. I urge you to disregard the bad reviews and see it for yourself. The old Alice in Wonderland story was a silly tale of fantasy, and this one adds just a touch of darkness, as only Burton can imagine.
