This is my review of the 2016 film Alice Through the Looking Glass. It is the sequel to the 2010 Alice film. Tim Burton got replaced by Muppets' director James Bobin.
The Plot: The film is about Alice trying to save the Hatter by going back in time and rescuing his family. The plot has pretty much nothing to do with the Alice Through the Looking Glass book which is good. The plot benefits from focusing so much on the Hatter. The plot deals with family: Alice and her mom, the Hatter and his dad, the White Queen and the Red Queen. However the real plot is about the heartwarming relationship between Alice and the Hatter. Alice puts the world in danger to help the Hatter. The plots are mad, bonkers, but all the best plots are.
The Characters: Once again Alice and the Hatter are awesome. Now that Alice has learned what she wants to do with her life she's even cooler than she was in the previous film. The Hatter is pretty much the same level of wonderful as he was in the previous film, because it's hard to improve perfection. The Red Queen's a weak villain, but Hamish is amusing enough to balance things out.
The Acting: Mia Wasikowska is still great as Alice and Johnny Depp is still the king of fun. The film has 2 new cast members: Sacha Baron Cohen who is fun as Time and Rhys Ifans who is great as the Hatter's dad.
The Visuals: Even better than the previous film. Just about everything looks amazing. Once again the costumes are awesome.
Overall Alice Through the Looking Glass is a awesome film that easily gets a 10 out of 10.
