Cool looking, but lacked heart

I admit, I was a little apprehensive as to how Tim Burton was going to "treat" Alice, and in the end, my apprehension was warranted. While it's clear that countless hours went into crafting the look of the film, not enough were spent on developing the actual story and the main character. "Alice" got lost & overshadowed by Hatter & the Red Queen & the rest of Wonderland. That didn't happen in the book or in the earlier Disney version. Simply put, Tim Burton's "Alice" traded heart for CGI. Which is sad. Also, the movie is dark, at times intense and scary. It's not ok for small kiddos.I wouldn't tell anyone to NOT see the movie, but my only real reason for that is the 3D aspect, which is very cool. Too bad that's all the movie has to offer.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
