Excellent Re-imagining Of The Familiar Story

from Bensalem, PA
I just saw Alice In Wonderland in 3D IMAX. I thought it was wonderful. I was particularly looking forward to Johnny Depp's performance, but it was Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen that really made the movie. I liked that small details were kept (dragonflies and rocking horse flies) just as much as large story points (the playing card motif from the first book and the chess motif from the second). Alice's scenes in 19th C. London are bleached, it makes her look unusually pale and washed out - a nice stylistic touch that contrasts nicely with the main scenes and is also reminiscent of The Wizard Of Oz. All in all, a great movie I highly recommend. But skip the 3D and the IMAX. Not necessary, and even distracting from some of the details.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
