...with the vibrant colors of the scenery throughout the entire film reflect the frightening effect that made the original such an absorbing portrayal of Lewis Carroll’s classic story. From the vivid costume design to the masterful depiction of the multi-colored Mad Hatter, played by Jonny Depp, this film steps up to the plate in film animation...
...generally bland dialogue is also a big disappointment. There is a fair share of laugh-out-loud moments, mostly delivered by the quick-witted Johnny Depp. However, for every clever joke there are more than a few clichéd lines. Alice’s cheesy monologue, describing the “six impossible things” that she has seen accomplished despite her disbelief (which culminates in the sixth declaration of “I can slay the Jabberwock!”) is perhaps one of the most painfully tacky moments.

Their next film, Dead Presidents, depicted the scars of Vietnam on a returning vet. After the documentary American Pimp, they sent Johnny Depp in pursuit of Jack the Ripper in the 2001 From Hell, based on an Alan Moore graphic novel. Their films exude a tone of lawlessness and despair. The message: whether it's Victorian London or a saloon town 30 years hence, sooner or later every place is Detroit...
