Alice Through the Looking Glass

Alice Through the Looking Glass

The only place that you'll be transported to if you walk through a looking glass is the ICU.

However, meandering through one in this fantasy will take you to another realm.

When her real world problems become unbearable, Alice (Mia Wasikowska) escapes through a magical mirror into Wonderland to visit her outlandish acquaintances.

Paramount is the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp), who has been despondent since losing his family to the Jabberwocky. To assuage the addled Hatter, Alice swipes a gadget from Father Time (Sacha Baron Cohen) and travels to the past to save them.

Lacking a reason to exist beyond financial gains, this laughably loose adaptation of Lewis Carroll's literary sequel forges its own sloppy narrative about time-travel. Supported heavily by hallucinogenic special effects and ham-fisted performances, this continuation is simply a colourful cash grab.

Moreover, Alice would've been rich by now if she'd only trademarked the phrase: Eat Me.
