Tim Burton was born to bring Alice in Wonderland to the big screen.
Ironically, his version of the Victorian text plays more like The
Wizard of Oz than a Lewis Carroll adaptation. On the day of her
engagement party, the 19-year-old Alice (a nicely understated Mia
Wasikowska) is lead by a white-gloved rabbit to an alternate
reality that looks strangely familiar--she's been dreaming about it
since she was 6 years old. Stranded in a hall of doors, she sips
from a potion that makes her shrink and nibbles on a cake that
makes her grow. Once she gets the balance right, she walks through
the door that leads her to Tweedledum and Tweedledee (Matt Lucas),
the Dormouse (Barbara Windsor), the Blue Caterpillar (Alan
Rickman), and the Cheshire Cat (a delightful Stephen Fry), who
inform her that only she can free them from the wrath of the Red
Queen (Helena Bonham Carter channeling Bette Davis) by slaying the
Jabberwocky. To pull off the feat, she teams up with the Mad Hatter
(Johnny Depp in glam-rock garb), rebel bloodhound Bayard (Timothy
Spall), and Red's sweet sister, the White Queen (Anne Hathaway in
goth-rock makeup). While Red welcomes Alice with open arms, she
plans an execution for the hat-maker when he displeases her ("Off
with his head!"). Drawing from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and
Through the Looking-Glass, Burton creates a candy-colored
action-adventure tale with a feminist twist. If it drags towards
the end, his 3-D extravaganza still offers a trippy good time with
a poignant aftertaste. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
