Title: "ALICE IN TIM BURTONLAND"- 2010
Review: Director Tim Burton doesn't really bother to adapt "Alice In Wonderland" (he and screenwriter Linda Woolverton throw Lewis Carroll's original "Alice" books completely away) as much as he creates "Alice In Tim Burtonland." As such, the film does not disappoint. . At worst, Lewis Carroll's enigmatic Wonderland is transformed into a standard "fantasy cinema" (extremely CGI) landscape where a standard battle between Good and Evil must be fought and won. At best, Tim Burton gives you a typical "Tim Burton film" with his trademark touches; such as his creative muse Johnny Depp as a deathly pale, demented, Bozo the Clown-looking Mad Hatter; and his wife Helena Bonham Carter perfectly cast as the tyrannical Red Queen. Anne Hathaway is spacey, saintly and "blissed out" as the White Queen. As an almost adult Alice, Mia Wasikowski looks bored and baffled throughout.
