Alice in Wonderland

“Tim Burton’s *Alice in Wonderland* trades the whimsy of the original tale for a moody, gothic aesthetic that emphasizes visual spectacle and digital artifice. While the performances—particularly Johnny Depp’s eccentric Mad Hatter—are undeniably committed, the film’s heavy reliance on CGI creates a cold, detached experience that will appeal most to fans of Burton’s signature dark fantasy style rather than those seeking a traditional storybook adaptation.”
