ALICE IN WONDERLANDLast weekend i went to see Alice In Wonderland in 3D at cineworld in Cambridge. I really enjoyed this film because even though most parts of the film were annimated, i found it really funny and i thought that it had a good story line. There has been mixed reviews over Alice and Wonderland in the papers recently, and quite a lot of cinemas aren't even showing the film because the Dvd is coming out soon.

Times Online Review
Here is a clip from the Times Online Website.
Each scene offers a British luvvie in phantasmagorical disguise. Alan Rickman voices the caterpillar, and perhaps inevitably the Cheshire Cat speaks with the smug voice of Stephen Fry. Tweedledum and Tweedledee are a digitally manipulated Matt Lucas, and Paul Whitehouse is the disturbed March Hare, prone to throwing crockery. The squeaky dormouse, who pokes out the Bandersnatch’s eyeball with a needle, is our very own Barbara Windsor.
Unfortunately, Johnny Depp has too much of Willy Wonka lingering about him as he plays the Mad Hatter, who is promoted to a modern buddy role with Alice. Anne Hathaway’s character as the White Queen was, said Burton, based on Nigella Lawson. This running joke becomes clear in the lipsmacking potion scene.
