movie review

During the holidays, I went to the cinema to watch a moive "Alice in Wonderland". This movie is about a Alice grown up who is going to get married to her boyfriend but she didn't even know she was going to get married to him. When he proposed to Alice, she wasn't sure of accepting or declining. She saw a rabbit with a watch ticking and she decided to follow it by giving an excuse of needing to think about the wedding. Alice follows the rabbit to a tree with a big hole. Alice accidentally falls into the hole and lands up in a room with a table with a key and a bottle which is labeled "drink me". She drinks the liquid inside the bottle and shrinks. She forgot to take the key and becomes to small to reach up onto the table. She sees an item which is labeled "eat me" on the floor. She eats too much of it and grows until the reaches the ceiling. Having the key she shrinks herself down again by drinking the rest of the liquid and she uses the key to enter a small door. Inside there are creatures not normal to see in the human world. She is believed by the creatures to slay the Red Queen's guardian, the Jabberwocky, on the Frabjous Day using the Vorpal sword.


Along the way she encounters the mad hatter, the mouse, the blue caterpiller, the flying grinning cat, the rabbit and two fat boys. They want Alice to kill the Jabberwocky. The hatter gets captured by the Red Queen. Instead of going to the White Queen, Alice goes to the Red Queen's palace to save the hatter where she is known as 'umm'. Alice learns that the Vorpal sword is inside a small house with the creature which once attacked Alice. She returns him his eye ball which got plucked out by the mouse and he gives her the key to unlock the chest to the Vorpal sword. The creature brings her to the White Queen's palace where everyone is reunited. Soon, everyone prepares for battle. Alice has to fight the Jabberwocky which is a huge flying beast who breathes fire. Alice brings it to the top of a circular staircase where she beheads the Jabberwocky and everyone looks at her in awe. The White Queen sends the Red Queen and her aqquintance to the outlands forever.


Alice climbs out of the hole and returns to the wedding where she decided not to get married as she is still young and is not ready. Having been through this adventure has made her more independent and can think on her own without the help of others choosing for her.


I would recommended this movie to others as it is not like the previous movie where Alice is a young girl but now is a grown-up who slays a beast.
