Alice Through the looking glass

Here's a great whimsical movie for the whole family to watch! Alice in the looking glass can be best appreciated by surrendering to its mad digital 3D excess with 3D glasses. This sequel to Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland "directed by James Bobin is so cluttered with an unwieldy mixture of Victoriana and special-effects that every nook and cranny is crammed with stuff. There’s more to look at than the eye can take in.

A symbol of that excess is a table set for a two-person tea party whose piles of goodies contain enough sugary calories to fell an entire Navy battalion from diabetic shock. Were it not for sweets, there would hardly be a story. Like Mr. Burton, whose original film made over $1 billion at the global box office, Mr. Bobin believes in taking opulence and extravagance to extremes.

One of the major plot threads concerns the conflict between the evil Red Queen, Iracebeth (a feisty, snapping Helena Bonham Carter), and her sister, the angelic White Queen. Iracebeth’s bitterness dates to a childhood incident involving cake crumbs, in which she is blamed for Mirana’s mess. The sibling feud escalates into a conflict that at one point stops time itself.

Alice has her own problems. After her adventures establishing trade routes to China on her ship, the Wonder, she returns to England to find that a rejected suitor, Hamish , has taken her ship by persuading Alice’s mother to agree to a deal. The adventurous Alice will from now on be trapped in stuffy Victorian England.

Leading the list of stars is Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter, an eccentric neurotic loner first seen dying of a broken heart. He has been chronically depressed since the day his strict, conservative father laughed at his first attempt at hat making.
His search for his parents, presumed dead at the end of the first film, ignites the third subplot in which his best friend, Alice, equipped with a whirly gyroscopic time machine called a Chronosphere, tries to alter the past to change the future.
In the end, to paraphrase the Beatles, the movie includes the quote "Everyone is desperate to get back to where they once belonged." A great addition to an already cult fairytale movie that will have everyone in curious fits of laughter, and the kiddies with wide eyes!

What I Liked about the movie was the colourful outfits that where show through out the movie.  This movie was also less -violent  compared to the first movie Alice in wonderland  including showing that Alice's courage and determination make her a force to reckoned with.
