Title: Burtons ego gets in the way.
Review: I hated this film.Alice upgraded to angsty teen to be more commercially appealing, allowing her to have some kind of flirty relationship with the Hatter. Hatter turned into a pseudo heroic figure to accomodate Depp's image. Ending with a battle between good and evil. Ho hum.Burton had a chance here to make the greatest ever version of the greatest ever children's story. Instead it's a rampant tribute to his own ego.He seems to be under the illusion that his imagination and inventiveness are equal to Carrolls. It ain't.if the film had been called Tim Burton's Alice, I might have worn it. As it is, it is a huge disappointment that it is not the original story.A golden opportunity thrown away by the arrogance of a grossly over rated director.
