It seemed that this movie wasn't getting a lot of attention - all I knew is that the people I knew who'd seen it - wanted to see it again, in IMAX 3D. Well, last night I went with a group of friends and we all thought it was right there with "Avatar." It was magnificent. It hovered just this side of a nightmare. Tim Burton was THE perfect director for this tale. It was beautifully cast, with Johnny Depp, as usual, phenomenal. The actress who played Alice was also flawless. The art direction, cinematography, costumes and special effects were as good as they come. This movie will last for years to come as a classic. See it quick on IMAX 3 while you can. A little mature for young kids.
