This was so very enjoyable to watch. It was a little "darker" than I thought it would be, but I guess that's to be expected from Tim Burton. Johnny Depp wows as the Mad Hatter (no surprise there) and Helenna Bonam-Carter was excellent in her role as the Red Queen -- definitely the most amusing character. I particularly appreciated the ending, as I think most young women will. It reminded me never to loose my "muchness". Absolutely recommend.
