This movie was all it was said to be. I went with my child and some of her friends, their ages vary from 11-3, and all of us enjoyed it. I think that i enjoyed more than anyone. The 3D effects were just amazing. Johnny Depp was a great Mad Hatter, Anne Hathaway played a very convencing white princess, even her motions in her hands were there and as far as Helena Bonham she was cruel, rude, funny, and real. I would suggest taking your children to this movie, especially if they have never been to a movie in 3D.
