I went into this with big hopes. So, I don't know if my hopes were too big or if the movie really lacked that special something. I would have liked it more had it followed the original Alice in Wonderland. This should have been named Alice Returns. The use of imagery and color was beautiful, but with the talents of Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter who I am both HUGE fans of, it just didn't follow through on what it could have been. Like others have said, I should have waited for it on Netflix. But you know everyone is going to see this, so you might as well follow the crowd (yes mom if everyone was going to jump off a bridge, I probably would too).
