Unfortunately, Mr. Burton's take on Carrol's imagination has left something to be desired. The characters are well constructed but the story that promises what we haven't yet seen lacks a bit of determination and pace to keep the viewer guessing and interested. The beautiful effects are quite reasonable, given the fact that 3D is becoming a trademark in film making, but after all the said and done, it turns out to be something that I, as a viewer, disregard if the story doesn't grab my attention. "Alice in Wonderland" is okay, but if I am going to believe that falling through the rabbit hole is worth my while, I need enough reason to not want an immediate rescue back up.
Director: Tim Burton
