Movie Review: Alice In Wonderland 3D

I treated my mum to see this in Gold Class as an early Mother's Day present because I had no idea what else to get her.

I have been saying since I saw the first images that Johnny Depp looks like Madonna in this!

Amazing! Is the only way to describe it. Depp is brilliant (but he nearly always is). Anne Hathaway does not 'do' white blonde well (especially with those eyebrows). Alan Rickman as the Caterpillar is reminiscent of Professor Snape from Harry Potter.

Plot: Alice, an unpretentious and individual 19-year-old, is betrothed to a dunce of an English nobleman. At her engagement party, she escapes the crowd to consider whether to go through with the marriage and falls down a hole in the garden after spotting an unusual rabbit. Arriving in a strange and surreal place called "Underland," she finds herself in a world that resembles the nightmares she had as a child, filled with talking animals, villainous queens and knights, and frumious bandersnatches. Alice realizes that she is there for a reason--to conquer the horrific Jabberwocky and restore the rightful queen to her throne.
