But there's also an obnoxious, digitally aided cast you can muster no sympathy for and a story with far more style than substance. Unfortunately, that hypothetical theme park ride isn't as much fun as a two-hour feature film. Somewhere in here, there's an exciting five-minute theme park ride with fire and water and falls and 3D. Nonetheless, it's clear no expense has been spared for this sequel, which is loaded to the brim with visual effects, a class that also embodies its production design and hair and make-up. Through the Looking Glass has a reported production budget of $170 million, which is significantly less than its predecessor's $200 million, particularly when adjusting for inflation. Meanwhile, Alice's journeys through time treat us to various tragicomic episodes from characters' past, including a look at a young, sensitive Hatter with his curly red-haired family (Rhys Ifans plays his father) and a Frozen-esque squabble from the Red and White Queens' shared childhood.
He can't stop Alice from going back in time, but he can take chase after her and crash one of the Hatter's tea parties, where he is subjected to time puns in the film's only laid-back moment. A good amount of time is spent in the world of Time, who even has gears grinding in the back of his head. They have Alice enter the realm of Time (Sacha Baron Cohen), where she is to steal the Chronosphere and journey back in time to prevent Hatter's family from being killed in an act of vengeance by the large-headed Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter).
The gang decides to take drastic measures to make Hatter's delusions accurate. The Hatter refuses to believe his family is dead, despite what Alice and the others tell him. They're all concerned with just how mad the Mad Hatter (extensively CGI-embellished Depp) has become. That takes her back to Wonderland Underland and with a little help from caterpillar-turned-butterfly Absolem (voiced by Alan Rickman in his final credit), she reconnects with the gang, including Tweedledee and Tweedledum (both mo-capped Matt Lucas), the White Queen (Anne Hathaway), and the Cheshire Cat (voiced by Stephen Fry). At the event to celebrate his new lordship, Alice sneaks off and enters - you guessed it - through the looking glass, or what you might call a mirror. The man whose marriage proposal she turned down has troubling plans to halt her career as a captain. We open in 1874 with Alice the captain of the sea ship Wonder, which arrives at dock a year after expected. The title suggests this adapts Lewis Carroll's 1871 follow-up to his original Alice book, but then that was reinterpreted by Burton and company, so anything goes at this point and returning screenwriter Linda Woolverton ( Maleficent) again takes copious amounts of creative license. The principal cast is all back, from top-billed supporting player Johnny Depp to period drama fixture Mia Wasikowska as Alice.

Burton produces this sequel, but directing duties have been passed off to James Bobin, a TV comedy veteran who impressed thoroughly on his feature debut 2011's The Muppets and less so on its just okay 2014 sequel Muppets Most Wanted. Moviegoers thought it was all right, giving it a mediocre 6.5 on IMDb where Burton movies usually get a bit of a bump. Critics didn't care much for Burton's movie. That seems to be reason enough for Disney to make a sequel,Īlbeit an altogether untimely one in Alice Through the Looking Glass, arriving six years later. Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland grossed over a billion dollars worldwide in 2010, becoming only the sixth film to generate a 10-figure haul.
