I had high expectations due to Tim Buron's brilliant, fantasiful, and dream-like approach to many of his flms. It was double jeoparody because Alice Through The Looking Glass was one of my favorite books as a child, and the cartoon movie is my favorite Disney animation feature ever.
Results? On a scale of 1 to 10.....it was and 11. It was far better than I expected. It references both the cartoon and book quite a bit. The ending was left wide open for a sequel too. I loved every minute, and the 3-D effects have greatly improved; not up to NASA's standards yet. Depp was superb, but Carter stole the show. Go see it and don''t be late!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Carey works my last nerve...perfect for Scrooge...LOL. He also played all three ghosts too, but he wasn't over the top...his acting was rather natural....shocker. I usually saw the character instead of Carey.
I didn't really want to go. I loved the rich Christian overtones! I mean, that IS want CHRISTmas is about. I'm no Dickens fan, but I teared up a few times. The Ghost of Christmas Past really got to me...it was Carey's acting (the ghost role) on that one...and a few other scenes got to me as well.
I saw it in IMAX 3-D...well worth the cha-ching $13.50 IMNSHO.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
