Burton's 'Wonderland' engrossing, imaginative
Abstract:
I hated the original story of "Alice in Wonderland" - there was no driving force behind the plot, there was no character resolution for anyone but Alice and only the White Rabbit and Chesire Cat were interesting. But when I learned Tim Burton was making a sequel to "Alice," I became hopeful that Wonderland would finally get a story worthy of its possibilities....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA GREAT POST COULDN'T AGREE W/ YOU MORE :D

If Alice in Wonderland is showing in 3-D in your local cinema I would certainly recommend it as I find (as I also did with Avator, also in 3-D) that it takes you from being a spectator of a fantasy into the action itself. Thus making it feel much more real.

Hey, I haven't seen the film yet and I enjoyed the review.
That being said, I have to concur with bosko (though I thought his comment was a bit harsh). If you're disappointed by the lack of coherence in the Wonderland books, you're entirely missing the point.
