If you're expecting a faithful rendition of Lewis Carroll's classic, you will be disappointed. This is a hodgepodge of Carroll's various writings, chopped up and reassembled by Tim Burton. The imagery has the dark, Film Noir qualities of such recent films as Batman and the blatant good guy/bad guy morality of Avatar. Granted the visual effects are well-done, but in this age of computer animation that's nothing new. There is a bit of humor, but I think the film is a bit too somber and wordy for most children. A decent film, but I think the old cartoon version by Disney was a lot more faithful to the original, more lighthearted, and is more appropriate for children.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
