Alice in Wonderland (2010) is one of the worst box office hits in cinema history. The movie earned its producers about $200 million dollars, but that does not mean that it is any good. In fact, it is a terrible movie. The movie is based on the characters from the classic children’s book titled Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. That book is as good as this movie is bad.
In the movie, Alice, played by Mia Wasikowka, returns to Wonderland for more adventures. She meets the Mad Hatter, played by Johnny Depp, and the White Queen, played by Helena Bonham Carter. She and all the characters look both scary and ridiculous. It is impossible to stop looking at their make-up, their heads that are either too big or too small, and their sizes. All of the characters look like they have eating disorders. Some need to go on a diet because they are obese. Others need to start eating because they look like they are starving.
The dialog in the movie is also terrible. Instead of using the wonderfully clever words of Lewis Carroll, the screenplay writer (Linda Woolverton) ruined the language that made the book world famous.

Do not waste your money and time on this movie.
