Looking quite stunning in a 3D presentation and providing some creative answers to the questions of Alice’s first adventure in Wonderland, this new take on an old tale is surprisingly engaging. (Hookahs may contain anything from hallucinogenic drugs to tobacco or benign spices.) While there is no evidence of the character being inebriated or “high,” anyone conversing with a blue, talking insect could be accused of being in that condition. And, yes, for all those who were convinced the original Alice was nothing more than a drug fantasy, the hookah-smoking caterpillar is still puffing away-although the movie never mentions just what is in the device. Battles with swords and the explicit chopping off of a fantastical creature’s head are the most explicit of the many moments of peril and ghoulish images in this film. Along with reimagining the plot, the film offers a very 21st Century empowered woman-a conclusion that simply wouldn’t have happened in 19th Century England.įrom a family perspective, parents will be happy to know there is hardly any sexual content or language, but violence will be an issue for younger viewers. This new adaptation deftly integrates many of these original features, which pays homage to the classic author’s works, but likely won’t please purists. Now she only wants to find the prophesied “Alice” and be “off with her head!”įans of Lewis Carroll will recognize Vorpals, Jabberwocks and Bandersnatches as being parts of his famous nonsense poems and stories of Alice. ![]() She currently holds dominion over the land and guards the sought after weapon with her vicious Bandersnatch (some sort of hairy, toothy creature). Of course the evil Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter) isn’t pleased with this prospect. Bumping into the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp), Alice soon discovers that her coming has been foretold as the one who will bring peace back to the land by slaying the Red Queen’s fearful Jabberwocky (a huge flying dragon) with the coveted Vorpal sword and restore power to the White Queen (Anne Hathaway). However, Wonderland isn’t quite the slaphappy place it once was. Moments later, she’s down the rabbit hole and in a world she is certain she has visited in recurring dreams from her childhood. Obliged to accept the public proposal of a suitor she doesn’t care for, she instead runs away from the crowd and follows a strange rabbit wearing a waistcoat. Under the direction of Tim Burton, little Alice has matured into a young lady (Mia Wasikowska) living in Victorian England.

The rose tells her there is another flower that can move like her and looks like her, but she is redder, her 'petals are shorter', and wears her thorns on her head. The violet is rude when she tells her that she had never seen anyone looked stupider, of course, she never saw anybody herself as explained by the tiger-lily. Then all of them make shrill voices and don't stop until Alice whispers them that she will pick them if they don't hold their tongues.

When Alice asks them if they are frightened when no one takes cares of them, the rose tells her that the tree in the middle is ther.
