Alice e Peter

I love fantasy and the two movies mentioned above. However this was slow, depressing, and the few fantasy parts in it were weird and annoying. It felt like they didn't know their target audience. It was not for kids, nor adults to enjoy. I can't see teens liking it either. This was just a melting pot of nonsense.

While I was looking forward to the movie when I heard of it being made, the subsequent reviews after it opened had me worried. After I decided to judge it for myself, I was surprised that the critics seemed to be so unanimously bent against the movie. Personally I found the story to be beautiful, well told and well acted, and supported by stunning cinematography and a sensitive direction. I guess it all comes down to personal sensibilities, imagination and perhaps expectations.

I see a lot of reviews that command you DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE and I say make up your own mind. Try it. See how you like it. Maybe you'll find yourself bored by dialogue if you like more action. Maybe you'll find the darkness of certain topics to be too much to bear for your overwrought heart. Maybe you'll wish it was a movie made for children so you can watch something with your kids.

Or maybe, just maybe, you haven't forgotten how to dream and you'll find it enchanting, moving and poignant and you will enjoy the time you spent chasing after shadows on the edge of Wonderland.

5/10 - creative mix of Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland lacks the punch it needs to fully explore the interesting juxtaposition of staying young forever and having to grow up

Read the basic info in this and it sounded great

Wow, couldn't have been more wrong. It gets 3 points for the lovely acting from the youngsters

The film itself is so slow and boring

It looked like it was about to get going with 15 minutes to go and my daughter said maybe this is just the first part.

Well no such luck. 5 minutes of "adventure " in the whole film I would say

Don't bother people!

A drama without adventures. It is about the antecedent story before being Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland. Nonsense in many situations. Quality. Parsimonious to the extreme. With a situation modeled on confusion. Although the approach is good, it stays with the attempt and ruins the classics of Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland. It is interesting that the protagonists are black. The few effects are quality. The era well recreated and good changing rooms. Good performances. A failed attempt.
