We watched the latest Johnny Depp and had fun doing so. The film is currently rated at 7/10 in IMDB, but I would personally rate it higher. This is because I haven’t read the whole story even in my younger years, so my expectations are low.

The movie is actually not the typical Alice in Wonderland (or should I say underland?) story. It’s about Alice’s return to the wonderland after some years. Of course, the popular characters are still present such as the Mad Hatter, the twins Tweedledee and Tweedledum, The red and the white queen, the Chesire Cat and more. Other known parts of the original story are also portrayed, like Alice drinking a potion to shrink and eating a cake for her to like increase hgh and grow tall. Overall, I find the movie entertaining.

You will notice the partnership of Helena Bonham Carter, Johnny Depp and Tim Burton in many films. The trio completed other movies such as Corpse Bride, Sweeney Todd, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and others. Helena is actually Tim Burton’s wife, and Johnny Depp is one of their close friends.

As for my rating, it’s at 8/10.

The latest Johnny Depp hit the big screen – and early results and reviews are quite high. As of this writing, the rating is at 7.4 / 10 in IMDB. That is out of 1552 respondents.

The Alice in Wonderland characters are popular ones, and here are those that portrayed the primary characters.

• Johnny Depp – Mad Hatter (the star among all the cast)
• Mia Wasikowska – Alice (the star of the story)
• Helena Bonham Carter – Red Queen (whose body might have suffered an overdose of top rated diet pills)
• Anne Hathaway – White Queen (really white in the posters)
• Crispin Glover – Stayne – Knave of Hearts
• Matt Lucas – Tweedledee / Tweedledum (the twins)
• Stephen Fry – Cheshire Cat
• Michael Sheen – White Rabbit
• Alan Rickman – Blue Caterpillar
• Barbara Windsor – Dormouse
• Paul Whitehouse – March Hare

This movie is also released in 3D IMAX, so it’s definitely one of the films that I would want to see.
