My last post was a "total random-ass ting lol!!!1!" So now I'm afraid I have to write a post with some purpose. And today i will be reviewing "Alice in wonderland."
If you were looking for a giant twist at the end, then I'm sorry for you. The film shot along with action packed sequences full of fat headed women and mongo-groovy special effects (I bought 3d, although I have no idea why i keep doing it, even though I actually recall my last experience of 3d as I purchase the tickets (which almost always causes the words "RIP OFF" to flash before me in vivid brown and then slide down the screen of my vision like a wet turd). The only thing worth seeing in 3d was the cat. And even that could have been replicated by seeing an ACTUAL 3d cat in real life or with a bit of acid. I suppose I must do it because if I don't buy 3d I feel like I'm cheating myself. I walk up to the counter and say: "Alice in Wonderland" and the woman nonchalantly replies "3d?" I picture her response if I decline her generous offer. It is one of shock, of disgust, she stares at me down her nose like she's just seen a worm with an erection. I recoil in fear as suddenly the entire population of Vue stand up, pulling pitch forks from their arses and begin to walk menacingly towards me. I turn to my friend who stands still among the calm mob, a frighteningly blank expression on his/her face, and as I watch they draw a pen knife and begin to slash wildly around them as they advance with the crowd. The posters light up and I watch in terror as the popcorn begins to turn back to corn: "NO!" I scream, but still the little frozen-white explosions shrink into dull brown blobs until the whole popcorn tub looks like Peter Rabbits outhouse. I sink to my knees, defeated. And then I'm back to reality and only one thing occurs to me: "Buy the 3d tickets. Or face Popcorn Death."(Some may remember Hot Death as a condition caused by high definition of images which often results in Burst Eyeballs, Popcorn Death can result in Hunger, Malnourishment, and in several cases No Popcorn. So i buy the 3d tickets, wear the clunky glasses and get on with my life. Happy?))) But the story itself follows blindly down a corridor of Weird Predictability. The only bit that surprised me was the dancing. And i want it to surprise you too. So I will say no more.
Thrills for all the family one might say. But then this "one"'s grandparents must be dead, because there's sparce noir to the film unlike Tim's other work. The noir's there, but it's surface noir, nothing hard to get into. In summary, I do not recommend if you like your films short dark hard, or warm light and fuzzy because this one is a definite gap-filler (ahem, in the MARKET. (Oh matron!)) and not to be messed with. 8/10
