    The Hollywood ReporterMichael Rechtshaffen

    A fantastical romp that proves every bit as transporting as that movie about the blue people of Pandora, his "Alice" is more than just a gorgeous 3D sight to behold.

    When it comes to 3-D visual splendors, give me Wonderland over Pandora any day.

    "Alice" plays better as an adult hallucination, which is how Burton rather brilliantly interprets it until a pointless third act flies off the rails.

    For all its clever design, beguiling creatures and witty actors, the picture feels far more conventional than it should; it's a Disney film illustrated by Burton, rather than a Burton film that happens to be released by Disney.

    In the film's rather humdrum 3-D, the place doesn't dazzle - it droops.

    It has its successful moments but it's surprisingly inert overall, more like a Burton derivative than something he actually did himself.

    Busy, garish and periodically amusing.
