It isn't your average Alice, but I didn't expect that from Tim Burton. The new and eye popping Alice in Wonderland is darker than the animated Disney version, but all the usual suspects are there.
Johnny Depp is the Mad Hatter and he plays it suitably loony, but not so much funny as disturbed, Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen is wonderful in her terrifying portrayal of a monarch obsessed with beheading.
The 3D was perfection. I often found myself flinching as thing s flew from the screen, and the line between reality and fantasy has all but disappeared. Aside from the effects the story is quite a bit different from the books, yet some of the characters and events flow together nicely in this re-imagining of the tale.
Don't go expecting singing flowers and silly card soldiers and you will have a great time!
