Reviews

TheLittleSongbird I did actually want to like Through the Looking Glass. I love animation and I wasn't looking for a faithful adaptation of a timeless if perhaps difficult to adapt story. And Burbank Films Australia have shown that they are capable of making good animations, I loved their versions of Wind in the Willows and Peter and also thought their Treasure Island was good. But The Three Musketeers, Old Curiosity Shop and Prisoner of Zenda show that their output can also be disappointing. Sadly Through the Looking Glass was one of the disappointing ones. I did like the voice acting, with the standout being Phyllis Diller and also the surreal touches like Alice in the carriage with a character made of newspaper, the train that takes to the air and the journey via a paddle boat. However, the animation is sub-par with some of the characters looking stiff and flat colouring. The music also manages to be insipid, I do remember hating the Jabberwocky song when I was little and my perception hasn't changed. The script is often too modernised and americanised especially Alice's Kleenex line when she meets the White Knight, the story has some details from the book like the train ride, White Knight and TweedleDum/Tweedledum but a lot of it feels improvised with little of the oddball nature of the story and no sense of threat, the centaurs and unicorn characters are little more than fantasy standard clichés and the Lewis Carroll creations lack colour and absurdity with Alice bland and Jabberwocky made up to be more like cuddly children's' movie monsters, a complete anti-thesis to the famous poem about him. So overall, other than some of the surreal touches and the voice work, Through the Looking Glass was a disappointment. 3/10 Bethany Cox

johnstonjames Humpty Dumpty has big fangs. Why? because he's a big ol' dinosaur egg that's why. anyone expecting this to be a faithful( or even good ) adaptation of Lewis Carroll will be disappointed, no , disturbed by the liberties taken with the book by this version.Janet waldo is just alright as Alice. She was better in the earlier Hanna-barbera version from the sixties. some moments from the book are here, although not many. and Heffalumps are from 'Winnie the Pooh' not the 'Alice' stories so I don't know why they are here. also there were no prehistoric cavemen throwing rocks in the book either. if I were Alice I would be afraid of this Humpty Dumpty because he has big dino fangs and looks like he might bite.Mr.T makes a cool enough Jabberwocky although I don't see why he wants to hang out with the Bandersnatch and the Snark because they are total nerds with no personality. They also should have given the Jabberwocky a better song and they shouldn't have let the Bandersnatch and Snark sing along because they really ruin it.The lesson learned here is that dino fangs and a dino tail do not make for a better story.
