Sight and Sound - April 10th Volume 20 Issue 4 - Alice In Wonderland page 32-34

Although Tim took the opportunity to be apart of Alice In Wonderland Burton's unique style of work brings the story to life like Steven Spielberg's 1991 peter pan variant hook was not a strictly a remake of British Children's Classic stories and has already been wrestled into a Disney animated feature but also Tim Burton's take on the classic Alice In Wonderland follows the same story however when Alice is older, also removing characters from the animation classic of the walrus and the carpenter and the royal flush card but kept the iconic characters of the mad hatter, the queen of hearts, the cards, the cheshire cat, tweddle dee and tweddle dum.

However in Burton's films the hero's of many of his films all struggle with parents not just seen in Edward Sissorhand or in Willy Wonka with the relationship between his dad however Alice also faces this problem as she returns to London Victoria  but she seeks for adventure and ends up making her way back to underland even though she is aware of the power of the drinks and the cakes to alter her size however in Alice in underland the mad hatter and cheshire cat are both eccentric characters which side against the queen of hearts.

But in my opinion I think that Burton's take on Alice In wonderland is unique, interesting and gives Disney a new look on the classics however this can only develop further as Disney had broaden their style of work immensely compared to the animated films to the computer generated films such as Tangled, Frozen and Brave which offer more realistic characters, where as Tim's take on this is CGI and live action movies make the films feel more realistic, magical and exciting creating a movie masterpiece.
