was it ever a childs story
By stanthemann (1 review) from North Walsham , 30 Sep 2009[Highly rated reviewer]
Alive in wonderland has always had a quirky style to it, so hey what a great choice to have Tim Burton as the director, with the stlye and flare that this mad cap stlye of story needs,
if you have ever read the orignal story, it is not your normal childs story, containg much mental qustions from the norm.
Johny Depp is a spot on choice, being able to pull off that mad cap air about him, fits the bill to this story line, with the humour to take the edge off, i am looking forward to seeing this mad cap adventure!- Was this review helpful to you?

(501)Alice goes down the rabbit hole again
By riskysmith (121 reviews) , 28 May 2013A second visit to Wonderland by Alice is an extremely entertaining trip. Helena Bonham Carter is excellent as the Red Queen who has a habit of cutting off peoples' heads, and has a big one herself which is symbolic. Johnny Depp plays the Mad Hatter, and at the end when Alice decides to turn down the man who wants to marry her, I expected him to be among the wedding guests. Thus providing the love interest to end on a happy note.- Was this review helpful to you?

Utterly Enchanting re-telling of Story
By PeterO (6 reviews) , 22 Mar 2013I'm not a huge Tim Burton fan. Worse, I think the regular liaisons between he and Johnny Depp are at best tiresome. Because of the preceding prejudice I've positively avoided this movie.. Well, I was wrong. This is an utterly enchanting re-telling of a well worn story. Depp is awesome, the entire cast are engaging from first to last. Mia Wasikowska is completely believable as the shy young Alice who eventually grows to fulfill her potential. A quite extraordinary on-screen transformation.- Was this review helpful to you?

Another match made in wonderland!
By Daura (68 reviews) from Coventry , 01 Jan 2013Another outing for the Johnny Depp and tim Burton duo! on paper its like magic. Johnny delivers his eccentric, commical self as the made hatter and the cast are strong including helen le Bonham cater one of my favourite actresses, but part of me thinks it could have been so much more! perhapes less of the special effects and a little less darkness! im not sure?? but its still classically a good good film and a great story. Great family entertainment.- Was this review helpful to you?

Tim Burton makes Wonderland wonderful
By twosoddingcats (222 reviews) from Kingston-upon-Thames , 26 Nov 2012I can't fault this film- there's a Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp) [who helpfully explained in the extras that once upon a time hat makers went mad due to the mixture of glue and arsonic they worked with daily], a White Queen (brilliantly played by Anne Hathaway), a Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter complete with gigantic head) and a White Rabbit (Michael Sheen). Cute cameo roles like Matt Lucas as tweedle dee and tweedle dum. It's a lovely family adventure complete with huge tea pots, a mad hatters tea party and the slaying of an evil monster in the end. Newcomer Mia Wasikowska does a great job as Alice. Only Tim Burton could have brought the books to life like this.- Was this review helpful to you?

Great film for people able to read between lines
By joyoftoday21 (2 reviews) , 06 Nov 2012This is a great film. It doesn't exactly respect L. Caroll's story, but keeps the esential great depth of signification.
Not for everybody, though. For those who understand what illusion/ maya/ mythia is associate this concept to our life on earth. Our life as mortals.- Was this review helpful to you?
