Alice Through the Looking Glass's reviews
Media reviews
ABC
Bobin, good pupil, has emphasized even more in the boundless imagination, in gaudy colors, in the inflated special effects and everything you would expect from a film that is overflowing on all four sides.
Clarin
Twist with the characters, with moral included.
Entertainment Weekly
For better or worse, Looking Glass loses none of the first film?s muchness, with Bobin mimicking both his predecessor?s wildly saturated style and his general disregard for plot and substance.
Cinemanía
James Bobin doubles the crazy bet Tim Burton's 3D hallucinated and psychedelic colors.
New York Post
You certainly get your 20 bucks worth of spectacle out of Alice Through the Looking Glass. So breathtaking are the landscapes, so whimsical are the creatures, so marvelous are the marvels that I wanted to give a standing ovation to whoever signed the check to pay for all this. Expensiver and expensiver!
The Telegraph
The whole business, this time, is passable eye candy without being any kind of brain candy.
Time Out
The film?s pace barely leaves you time to think ? blink and you?ll lose the plot. But there?s plenty of imagination here to honour the spirit of Carroll?s topsy-turvy tales, even if the emotional resolutions are of a distinctly twenty-first-century sort.
Empire
Wasikowska gives it her all, and Cohen shines, but while this is a better film than the first, that was a low bar to reach.
El País
The proposal serves as delusional and dynamic children's adventure, but does nothing to tame the freest fragmentary nature of the original literary (...) However, Bobin is more prudent than Burton and puddled less.
The A.V. Club
It?s briskly paced and sometimes neat to watch in reality-bending 3-D, but none of it is quite as head-spinning as it should be. The movie doesn?t dare alienate its family base with genuine trippiness; instead, it pacifies with tedious familial backstory.
