Lewis Carroll's book 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' is a dreamy journey of comical curiosity. The characters are confused, lovable, mean or mysterious. It fills the mind with playful and amusing images. However, this movie is dark, violent, and disturbing. It is filled with scary and disgusting characters and situations. Instead of feeling "curiouser and curiouser", I was sadly left feeling "furiouser and furiouser." The screenplay is not true to the book, nor to the spirit of our beloved Walt Disney and the empire he intended to leave behind. I would NOT recommend this movie to anyone who is a true fan of Lewis Carroll's literary work, nor to anyone interested in preserving the innocence and magic of childhood days.
