I think this movie should’ve been called a journey to dreamland because it really did send me to dreamland.. Zzzzzz.. No offense to you, Mr. Tim Burton. I think you are a fine director, and throughout these years I have very much enjoyed all your movies – starting from Batman, Batman Returns, Edward Scissorhands, Mars Attacks, Sleepy Hollow, all the way to Big Fish and Sweeney Todd.
This recent one, on the other hand, I have to say I’m not really too fond of it. It literally put me to sleep.. And I actually never fall asleep in the theater. Ever. Okay well maybe just once, a few years ago when I went to see the most boring movie ever made in the planet, Thin Red Line. The movie sucked so bad, I was contemplating on walking out in the middle of it and asking for a refund. But I’m not saying Alice in Wonderland as bad as Thin Red Line.. Oh no, not at all. The movie is much much better than Thin Red Line, but they both are equally boring as hell.
I think the only great thing about the movie is Johnny Depp. Thank God Tim Burton decided to put Johnny Depp in this movie. I couldn’t imagine what the movie would’ve been like without Johnny Depp. He really saved this one from being super duper boring. He was so buried under heavy makeup, I literally couldn’t even recognize him in the movie. But you know, I kinda felt that Pee-wee Herman would’ve been great playing the character that Johnny Depp was playing. To be honest with you, I think it would’ve been awesome if they had Pee-wee Herman in the movie.
Okay maybe I should’ve seen this movie in 3D. Had I done that, that would’ve probably changed my opinion about this movie. I decided not to see it in 3D because it was always sold out and I was just too lazy to wait until the next day to see it. Besides, I read the book many many times before when I was a kid, so I pretty much already knew the storyline. Ah well.. Such a disappointment.
IndoDONKEY Alert!
