• The ending is pretty mind-blowing. Emotional.
• Robert Pattinson and Pierce Brosnan can actually act. I loved how Pattinson yelled at Brosnan in one of the scenes.
• The movie is not as sappy as the trailer made it out to be. The opening and closing sequences somewhat disproved that hypothesis immediately.
• I think the Ruby Jerins acted really well as the intelligent small girl (Caroline) who gets picked on in school. I like her short hair, and her very adult-like aspirations about becoming an artist.
• I like how ominous music starts kicking in whenever they portray happy scenes. Absolute irony
• Don't find out the dates the film takes place, because it will spoiler you for the ending.
• I thought Chris Cooper didn't act too well as the protective father.

• The opening of the film is so boring. It only took a turn when Alice started falling down the hole, which was a pretty amazing scene.
• The film didn't blow me away (probably because my expectations for the movie were high), but I guessed the visual effects were the main attraction.
• It was a fun and imaginative tale, with the movie strongly anchored by the impressionable characters and environments, rather than an intriguing plot.
• I liked how Johnny Depp (Mad Hatter) didn't really steal the whole show. I mean, he usually becomes the limelight of the shows that he act in (Sweeney Todd, Pirates of the Carribbean...), but he doesn't this time round. Very good.
• I loved the Red Queen (played by Helena Bonham Carter aka Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter and Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney Todd)
• Anne Hathaway had too little screentime as The White Queen imo.
• I'd encourage you to watch it in 3D, because it does immerse you in Wonderland.

LOOKING FORWARD TO WATCHING SHUTTER ISLAND.
