Better then I could ever hope

Rating: 9/10 (21 March 2010)

Tim Burton is a grim man and has had more misses then hits, but this is definitely a hit. Johnny Depp was great as the Mad Hatter, he was every thing the Mad Hatter needed to be. the only down side was the bright orange wig he had on, but what they did with his eye make-up was fab. The Cat was always my favorite character from the original story, and with Stephen fry as the voice it remains so. Mia as Alice was a fresh face on an old character, she made Alice her own and she owned it. Anna and Helena as the White and Red Queen's blew me Anna with her regal but tough and Helena with her brass and slightly scary kept me laughing, but my all time favorite was Tweedledum and Tweedledee played by Matt Lucas, both cute and funny and as confusing as they should be. The one thing that can be said is anyone looking for the cookie cutting, cutie, simple remake of the original Disney version, then don't see this movie, if you are looking for something like the book, then don't see this movie, if you are looking for a movie about a girl who travel to a different world and finds herself in the process then this is the perfect movie. Tim Burton Got It Right and I had a good time. Oh and see it in 3D it's way better that way.
