Whether to see the film itself? Definitely.

After a lavish London launch whereby part of the department store was transformed into Wonderland itself, the big screen launch of ’s literary classic was highly anticipated.

delivered yet another solid representation of a doolally eccentric – the Mad Hatter nearly stealing the show from a rather wooden Alice. managed to resist turning the fantasy into another ghoulish enterprise and retained much of the innocence and fancy of a child’s dream.

Blackadder’s may well want her Queen’s voice back from ’s version of the Red Queen, but the children in the audience would be unlikely to notice. lent his purring tones to the slightly unnerving Cheshire Cat and doubled up as Tweedledee and Tweedledum. Anne Hathaway missed the mark slightly as the ethereal white queen but will most certainly begin a trend for dark brown lipstick this Winter.
