Everyone is familiar with Alice and her adventures in Wonderland. And in this adaptation Tim Burton has essentially reshuffled the events of the original story that we love, added a few twists and created a quasi-sequel. I love Tim Burton and was looking forward to seeing this film since the teaser was released last year. However something about the film felt hollow. The plot failed to captivate me in this crazy remake but would I have been disappointed if Burton didn’t create something new and simply told us the same story we already know and love? Nonetheless, it was terribly predictable. It is a rated PG after-all... so the sinister spin on the classic shouldn’t have been expected.
But... Burton has undeniably created a dynamic, delightful, visual treat and is most certainly worth watching in 3D to enjoy the scope of it. The stellar cast are brilliant as you would expect with Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham-Carter stealing the show.
All in all it is a must-see... in 3D. But don’t expect any fantastical surprises.
