Girl Power Alice

Rating: 8/10 (11 March 2010)

It is always interesting to see the world through Tim Burrton's eyes. This time the world is wonderland. It takes a few minutes to get there, but like when Dorothy arrived in Oz we are treated to a special world with all sorts of interesting characters that are familiar yet new.
So what if the Red Queen looks like she was left over from "Mars Attacks". Johnny Depp is the maddest of the hatters. The Cheshire cat's grin is infectious and the blue caterpillar takes full advantage of the 3D effects. New creatures to tame and ride, a talking dog, a talking horse all seem reasonable in this world. The level of violence and too many needles into eyes may not be appropriate for younger children.
Alice shrinks, grows and grows along her journey in this girl power classic. Tim Burton turns a tea party into a feast for the eyes. Enjoy it in 3D.
