Mini-Review: One of the biggest and most spectacular of failures I have seen in recent years, Alice in Wonderland is Burton's attempt to make Carroll's story for the goth crowd. The father issues continue, as do the themes of isolation and "individuality" (basically being pale and childlike passes as different in Burton's book). Johnny Depp also gives another gut-wrenching performance while the plot goes nowhere. Easily Burton's worst film he's ever made. Don't waste your money.

Mini-Review: Absolutely magnificent film that is one of my favorites. One of the few motion pictures that will make you look at life in a different way afterwards. Inspiring.
