ALice in WOnderland 3D
First character, Johnny Depp makes an excellent role, as the Hatter. Traumatised and suffering from split personalities it's a nice touch and ideas that in his few act in this character,he seems aware that he's gone insane allowing Depp to briefly add a little humanity to the character. The 3D process although added quite late in the day manages not to feel like an afterthought. Wonderland is certainly not the rich and immersive world that James Cameron created in Avatar, but it rather gives the movie a hyper-real, almost pop-up book feel that suits the story well. And as with Avatar I'm again left with a joy and happiness that i get the chance to watch this particular movie. It's also refreshing and interesting to see a female main character have so much fun in an adventure(which was pretty rare in a blockbuster movie) while reminding Alice's target audience that doing like five to six impossible things before, which is something to be held onto no matter how old you are.
Like Alice down the rabbit hole, the character herself sometimes sees the world through a kind of distorted lens. Real people look as if they have magnified, telescoped heads or bodies. She is diagnosed with a neurological condition known as Alice in Wonderland Syndrome, she usually keeps her dreamlike visions to herself. She first complained of people and objects getting bigger and bigger like every year. Her symptoms occur in spur lasting from seconds to 15 minutes and persist for up to two weeks, and then, they can vanish for months just as mysteriously as they occurred. This has some connection with the migraine we had nowadays. This virus is a rare form of migrane which could last for hours since its a headache.
