Let's be realistic.

I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Agree with all the reviews here mostly. Cohen is good. Wasikowska saves the movie from itself. Depp is ridiculous, and downright hard to watch.

I'm not even done watching to film, I'm about 10 minutes from the end but I'm so disinterested by it that I thought I would write a review while the final scene plays. I think this title is very much a testament to the fact that money does not buy you a decent movie. Effect after effect after effect after garish colours and CGI animals. My goodness, if they had paid their tech guys a little less, and their story-writers a little more we may have had something good here. (Although in my opinion they were finished by the first movie in this series with the casting of Alice. What a vapid and uninteresting actress.) Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carol is a beautiful story, and while I know they're not exactly going for a retelling, they could have thrown a few nods to it here and there. Overall, very disappointing. But in true Disney fashion, it is a pretty thing to watch.

The Sequel to the 2010 hit Alice in wonderland. now both you and i know how bad was the first one. This one at least had some elements from the books, the visuals were better asswell, in Alice in wonderland it was dark and griddy wich doesn't fi wonderland. Thow to be fair it fits underland.This one is bright,colourful and neon.But it's still trying to make wonderland an action pack war movie with rebelion and it just doesn't work.I dare say the acting was a lot better to. Alice at least was more intrested on what was going on and even Deep got better at scenes. Thow in some he was even worse (YOURE ALIIIIIIICE). And finally the god of this film TIME. time played by sosa barron koan was really a god. He is like David cross from the cipmunks the one star it diserves it just because of him.

I really liked this. I also really enjoyed the first movie, probably a prerequisite to liking this one. Yes, it had familiar and campy parts, as we expect with Hollywood movies, and it wasn't too dark like a typical Tim Burton film (which I usually don't like), so maybe that's why I did like this. (He directed the first one but not this sequel). While I own every Disney animated movie, and I usually don't love or buy Disney live action / animation mixed films, this series was an exception for me. I'm also not normally a fantasy fan. But, the unique whimsy and imagination of the Disney version of Alice in Wonderland, with its psychological twists, is special to me. It is certainly not meant to make sense scientifically, though it loosely references real science with the cosmic time waves in space (they dip in and out of time from the sky). But, that is the beauty of this version - its totally illogical story is a wonderful escape for the overly logical of us. If you're the over thinking type, like me, watch this with a glass of wine or two - it is meant to be enjoyed without being analyzed. And if you can do that, you will get the point of it. I sense from those who disliked it that their consensus was that it was superficial or uninspired, to which I highly disagree. To me, it was thoughtful, moving, and carried on the tradition of the original Disney Alice in Wonderland, which is what I think the creators intended. And the original was special for the very reason that it was different and quirky, something that proved to be defining and valuable, not immediately, but over time.
