Date Reviewed: 15 March 2010 | I understand why Lionsgate tried to piggyback on Tim Burton's 'Alice in Wonderland,' likely hoping unsuspecting buyers will pick it up just because they're caught up in the hype or don't exactly know what they're getting, but it still stinks just a little. Oh well, I'll just chalk it up to creative marketing. I'm recommending this for a rental for a few reasons. First, I don't think that in my entire life I'd sit down and actually rewatch this. Second, the HD presentation is just too uneven. The audio, at times, is beautifully rendered, but as for the video… "Off with its head!" (Read Full Review)

Date Reviewed: 6 March 2010 | Alice alternates between a really creative reimagining of some classic source material and some ridiculously bloated and padded filler. There are moments here that are great and those with an affinity for Carroll's source material will enjoy some of the more obscure references - in short, it's worth seeing - but Lionsgate's Blu-ray is mediocre at best, making it hard to wholeheartedly recommend. Play it safe and give it a test drive before you plunk down money for this one. Rent it. (Read Full Review)

Date Reviewed: 2 March 2010 | There's no denying that Alice provides some fun moments as its approaches Lewis Carroll's classic Alice stories from a completely different perspective. This is often a lot of fun to watch, but it's just as often bloated, pretentious and lacking in the charm and whimsy that so define the original source material. You could do worse as a rental, but the flaws of this Blu-ray probably outweigh the pluses for you library collectors. (Read Full Review)

Date Reviewed: 2 March 2010 | Guilty of trying to inflict order on chaos, this Alice is a bit too stoic to make us believe she's in Wonderland. (Read Full Review)

Date Reviewed: 1 March 2010 | Nick Willing’s “re-imagined” tale plays out as an interesting twist on the traditional Alice in Wonderland, with pieces of this film suggesting a well examined look at Lewis Carroll’s work in order to materialize the past characters/themes and their relevancy to the new story. These new character portrayals are clever, and their layout within the story is well fitting for a modern redux of the Wonderland world. The performances from the cast are well played, from Caterina Scorsone’s less helpless Alice, a slightly mysterious Hatter played by Andrew Lee Potts, Matt Frewer giving an excellent side of the nearly neuroticWhite Knight, and definitely the not overdone Queen of Hearts by Kathy Bates. This story’s departure from a Disney-esque production is pulled-off in a smart fashion, and worth the recommendation of watching. (Read Full Review)
