Ph: Peter MountainĪt this point most people know the history of Lewis Carroll who wrote the original Alice In Wonderland stories. I had low expectations going in so I hoped maybe I would leave ambivalent, if nothing else.Īlice Through The Looking Glass commits the cardinal sin of a movie based on text that was written by someone abusing drugs it’s boring but visually uninteresting. In fact Alice Through The Looking Glass is a movie that sits with Jason Bourne and Star Trek Beyond as ‘high profile movies I keep forgetting are coming out’. When I saw that they were making a second one I was not excited at all. Now, so many years after the fact, I can hardly find anything that I enjoy in that movie. It was one of those movies I saw and was kind of lukewarm on, but as time went on I started to hate it more and more. That being said even I couldn’t apologize for Alice In Wonderland. I’m a huge Tim Burton apologist but I do think he’s already made his best movie (it’s Big Fish). Summary: Alice returns to the whimsical world of Wonderland and travels back in time to save the Mad Hatter.
