Everyone had been raving for this movie since its announcement last year. The anticipation grows more intense when the legendary team up of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp was put into the equation. Everyone, including me, who have read the famous book Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and sequel Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There would be curious and excited of how Tim Burton interprets the Lewis Carroll masterpiece.

Last Thursday, February 25, 2010 the Alice in Wonderland launched it’s Royal World Premiere at the Leicester Square Odeon cinema in central London. Mixed commentaries are heard from those who have already watched the movie. Here are some of the reviews:

Review from OK! Magazine (UK)

What’s good?

Alice In Wonderland looks absolutely incredible, especially in 3D. The CGI sets are everything you would expect from Burton and are dripping in his signature creepy imagery.

It’s entirely captivating and watching in 3D helps the adventure come to life. A huge amount of detail has gone into the main characters and their costumes and the CGI is flawless.

Helena Bonham Carter is a delight to watch as the evil Red Queen and Mia Wasikowska makes a perfect Alice.

A woman running for presidency….ok, so what’s new about it? That was my first thought when I read first few pages of Hulagu’s Web, but then as I turn the pages the story simply ensnared me.  It feels like reading Da Vinci Code for the first time, the author presented some chilling facts that makes me question some of the government policies and even question my own belief!  I never concern myself about the Alternative Energy and National Sales Tax issues before until I read this book.  I should say, Senator Lafroge, have quite an enlightening political saga and an enlightening lady herself.

I like the way how the author (David J. Hearne) touches the delicate and controversial political and social issues, the way he informs reader of the REALITY using the fictional characters.  The quotes and speeches delivered by my favorite “senator” Kat Lafroge are very mind provoking that makes me think deeply and analyze carefully the things that are happening on the society especially the political aspect not only in the US but of the world.  This book could a stir some serious controversy, and could irritate some people in political and business world.

It is chilling to realize that those controversial issues tackled on the book are true, that there are people who are willing kill just to protect their own interest.  It seems scary but nevertheless enlightening and educational.  I guarantee that this book will be worth every penny and minute you spend for it.
