Carroll's dream logic seems to liberate the animators: everything is constantly transforming, including prim Alice herself. Go to Full Review

Disney's frantic take on Lewis Carroll may lack much of the book's illogical charm, but it does contain one of the great proto-psychedelic sequences in cinema. Go to Full Review

What a grand ending too - it's a dream, as viewers knew from the start, but it concludes simply, smartly, and without dwelling on anything unnecessarily. Go to Full Review

Dannon M. @danos 4d Wow, watching this as an adult is truly mind blowing! Life just giving this poor girl uppers and downers and all rounders. On another note if you want to feel like Alice do your safe a favor and stop by Meow Wolf. See more Kevin P Dec 17 One of Disney's most iconic movies that holds up better than I remember. It captures the nonsensical absurdity of the book. The film's artwork is filled with crazy trippy visuals about nonsense. The characters of wonderland range from fun to obnoxious, all very memorable. I love the creative visuals and chaotic frantic pacing with this dreamlike episodic story of unforgettable vignettes. Alice herself is very likable and inquisitive with some great voice acting that makes her a great foil to all the madness around her. I loved the Walrus & the Carpenter scene. I loved the surreal flower & bird song sequences. I loved the dreamlike surreal quality of the setting with the vibrant colors, slanted angles, and black backgrounds. The Queen of Hearts is a very entertaining villain with a booming voice that goes back and forth between being incredibly intimidating and childish. I love how she could just snap at any moment. I appreciate all the creative artistry this movie has to offer.
