I'm not sure how many of you have seen Tim Burton's latest masterpiece, Alice in Wonderland, but I advise you PLEASE READ THE BOOK FIRST!!!
As you know, I am a book nerd. So, naturally, I read "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking Glass", Lewis Carroll.
It made the experience of watching Tim Burton's film, that much more enjoyable!!
The movie pretty much followed the book, although the book is always more detailed, of course. I happened to like how they upped the age in the character of Alice., it made the storyline flow a little better for all of us Old skool Alice in Wonderland fans. Another one of my favorite scenes was Alice walking over the moat full of "cut off heads", as per request of the Queen of hearts. I thought Anne Hathaway did a fabulous job as the white queen, and Johnny Deep...I mean COME ON!! He is Johnny Deep; he can make any movie better!!
The makeup was PHENOMENAL! It was def. my favorite part of the whole movie just seeing the array of colorful costumes and makeup looks. I have to give this movie two thumbs up, BUT Please, read the book before you watch it!! If you have already watched, read the book and then watch it again!! lol
