Alice

Last night KJ & I watched Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. Good God that was one jacked up movie. I was never a fan of the Disney animated version of Alice (hated that whole Jabawacky scene...WTH???) and Tim Burton's version was just as bizarre. The movie was visually stunning but I couldn't even appreciate it because the whole movie was just so over the top...the characters, the script, everything. I was totally over-stimulated.

Don't get me wrong, I luv, luv, luv Johnny Depp and have been a fan since his 21 Jump Street Days but I seriously think Tim Burton, Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter need to stop working together. They just keep getting weirder and weirder. Johnny Depp is one of the most versatile actors of my generation and I generally like most of his movies (Benny & Joon, What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Donnie Brasco, Platoon, Charlie & The Chocolate Factory, Finding Neverland) but I couldn't stomach Alice in Wonderland. Sorry Johnny!
