Continuing my plan to watch every Johnny Depp movie in order, I come to Alice Through The looking Glass.There is no need for this movie. That's true of most sequels, but it's especially true of Alice Through The Looking Glass. This movie was made for one reason. Alice In Wonderland made money. A lot of it. Over $300 million at the domestic box office alone! Original director Tim Burton is not involved with this one, and it shows, truthfully the movie as a whole is a mess. It rook me three attempts to get through it. All the major characters from the first film return, but Carter is criminally sidelined. The girl playing Alice is in every scene, yet, she makes zero impression!! Depp makes even less impact. Truthfully even writing this is boring me. Despite Depp going on a huge publicity tour, and appearing at Disneyland as The Mad Hatter to surprise guests. Alice Through The looking Glass only grossed $77 million at the domestic box office to end the year to 39th highest grossing movie of 2016.

Just saw on Netflix, not even interested to watch it but put it up to entertain my young niece while i browse away on the phone. But from the quick glances, eventually it pulled me in by the stunning visuals, beautifully crafted and unique constumes, special effects are feast for the eyes and the oh so wonderful witty and melodious dialogue was captivating and heartfelt. I never read Lewis Carroll before, only watched the movies or Disney cartoons. This is wonderful movie and a joy to watch. Main cast was amazing especially Johnny Depp, Mia and surprisingly Sacha Baron Cohen whom I'm not actually a fan, but his character was so interesting. Love this. Such an underrated movie. Watching this again later with full attention.

I loved the 1st one, so the other day I bought the Blu-ray of this one, because I never saw it. Simply put: If an 8 year old was told to write this script, and then an adult came along and corrected the grammar and spelling errors, but left everything else the child wrote 'as is', the result would be this script. Now, to add spice to the mix, get a 5 year old to direct it, and a 6 year old to edit it. "This movie would be the result of that plan". If my name was Linda Woolverton, I would commit suicide, rather than admit my name was Linda Woolverton.If my name was James Bobin, I would ban myself from Hollywood for eternity, and then commit suicide.I'm not rating the movie, because there is nothing lower than a 1 I can rate it here. It deserves a minus 10. I fell asleep 4 times while trying to watch this 'thing'. 3 times from boredom, and the 4th time from attempting suicide on myself for having purchased this Blu-ray.

Despite the special effects being sometimes great and other times 'meh', Alice Through the Looking Glass surprised me a lot!
It's very funny, light and pleasant to watch.
Once again we saw Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter carry the movie but Mia Wasikowska is a lot better than before.. her acting is really good in this one.
The meanings about Time and Family are really well done in almost every possible way.. the 'cause and effect' is on point.
Really good movie.
