Imaginative, but Disneyfied

Good: a nice blend of Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass, Jabberwocky, etc. to get a 90-minute story. Johnny Depp's performance is inspired, Mia Wasikowska has a brilliant career to come. Costumes & art design are terrific, the plot resolves itself very nicely.
Bad: Burton is far less subtle than Cameron use of 3D. The first 80 minutes are completely consistent with late Victorian setting, final 10 minutes (including a completely inappropriate closing vocal by Avril Lavigne) is terribly anachronistic. This will keep this movie from being a classic, and will be unwatchable in 2020.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
