and I LOVED IT! I think it is the best movie of it's genre since Lord of the Rings. It was a wonderful mix of actors and computer generated graphics, the characters were believable and drew you in. The scenery was detailed and I couldn't take my eyes off it, eye candy everywhere! I loved that there was no message, no brainwashing was involved about the enviroment, the government or races. It was just pure entertainment!
Mia Wasikowska was brillant as Alice. I loved her sweet English accent and her cheekiness. You believed in her from the moment she spoke. She pulled you in to her dreams.
I loved all the costumes. They were incredible. Um's dress was especially fine as was the dress the Mad Hatter made for alice when she grew too small and was put in the tea pot. Colleen Atwood is the costume designer, I see an Oscar in here future.
And then there is Johnny Depp, who thrives in these offbeat roles. He is the master of quirky and loveable. He was the ultimate Mad Hatter.
All the characters were incredible. I loved Helen Bonham Carter as the Red Queen and Crispin Clover as Stayne (HH recognized him as the George McFly from Back to the Future).
I can't wait to see this movie again. I might even buy it when it comes out on Blu Ray!
