Review of Alice Through the Looking Glass (2016) by Marinrovik — 08 Oct 2016

I wasn't sure what to expect from another Alice movie. The previous love for the characters jumped into this one too and do I even have to compliment Johnny Depp's acting skills once again? Hope not. Anyway, although at first I thought the plot was a bit forced, it turned out to be not so predictable.

The movie starts to get interesting pretty soon and it has a good morale and more than just a happy ending, it has a double happy ending to be precise. But I must say, in my opinion, some things and facts are a bit too complicated for children, who during the movie should have more than a couple of „but why mom?“ and might confuse them.

As a fantasy movie it's pretty solid, the visuals are o.k. and it has original some original characteristics of course. As I was at about half movie I was going to rate it much worse, as things got too clogged and were happening without order, it was rather confusing for me,which I disliked.

But it was actually pretty satisfactory when it all unfolded, making it a solid combination of fantasy and family movie. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to spend happily their evening in company of their kids (or parents).
