An average movie

To be honest, I wasn't  expecting much from this flick, especially after it turned out to be a flop at the box-office. I mean, it is all very nice that Disney keeps milking their catalog with these live-adaptations but nobody was really asking for a sequel for this movie, especially 6 long years later. Anyway, even though it turned out to be watchable, it was pretty weak though. Indeed, first of all, it started with a really over-the-top action scene with Alice as a ship captain. I mean, seriously?!? It was just so misguided. Sure, Alice is supposed to be a really special girl but they really pushed her emancipation just way too far. Then, from this introduction,  they had to get her back to Wonderland somehow so, completely at random, she went there with some mirror and this transition was just seriously awkward. In Wonderland, they decided to get her involved in some kind of 'Back to the Future' tale which was barely entertaining with a lot of bad jokes about time. In fact, when it was all over, you wonder actually why she had to go through time after all. At least, the whole thing looked really good and there was a nice cast involved so I guess it still worth a look but only if you really loved the first installment.
