Alice in Wonderland

This was definitely worth the extra for the IMAX 3D experience. There is a lot of eye-candy here, and it's all done really well. Unlike "Avatar" where it felt like I was just supposed to suck my thumb and look at pretty pictures, in this film all the special effects create a world that make the story work. Johnny Depp is having a lot of fun chewing scenery here and Helena Bonham Carter and Anne Hathaway are both really good. I don't know the "Alice" story well enough to understand how they bastardized it, but I thought this story worked. I think the film works in 2D as well.
