Reading it now makes me want to Netflix the movie again.

Here's the thing. I appreciate European surrealist shorts and cinema, but it all feels the same to me - Gothic, surreal, dark, nihilistic... It would have served better as a short film rather than a whole movie, to tell you the truth. I turned it off because I was bored. And I really like the concept of a dark Alice in Wonderland; but this just didn't work for me.

The movie is completely silent broken with "Alice" speaking lines from the book (only delivered through a sharp edited cut to Alices lips, "I'm late, said the White Rabbit," for example). It was annoying and broke up the imagery.

It's worth a try because the imagery is strong, but it doesn't hold up on its own.
i have to alteast watch it once........it cant be worse then voodoo moon...theres a movie i turned off two minutes into it.
