DVD Reviews of Alice in Wonderland (Masterpiece Edition)

DVD Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars

I love this Movie and the seller sent me exactly the item described. The movie is authentic Disney, and it has extras of 1951 footage when the movie was barely released. I love this film and im very happy i was able to find it on amazon.

DVD Review: Satisfaction
Summary: 5 Stars

Arrived in great condition. Enjoyed the video very much. Brought back a lot of fond memories from seeing this as a child. Arrived quickly. Didn't expect to receive it so fast. Was in excellent condition. Would buy from this seller again. Very pleased with purchase.

DVD Review: Wrong item
Summary: 1 Stars

Alice in Wonderland is what I ordered, but apparently there is a barcode problem (according to the retailer) and this item is not available. I got the Village instead - I guess if you want that, go ahead and order this! I' sure if the correct movie would really show up my review would have been great.

DVD Review: One of the very few good disney movies
Summary: 4 Stars

Besides Fantasia? Yeah, I'm very surprised at this notion, but Alice in Wonderland truly is a good movie, especially in the realm of other Disney classics (including pixar, which sucks as well)

Why is that? First off, it has no sappy ending (thank god), and while Alice simply just wakes up and the ending features a pretty song and her walking into beautiful fields, the ending is fine considering the plot is just some wicked dream. Which also makes a little sense because...

THe movie rules because of that dream. Granted, the movie is all about the dream, but the imagery in this movie is just plain cool! The Cheshire cat, the birds with the glasses, the house, the trial, the floating door at the end, this movie is pretty much an embasassment of those riches. It why Alice in Wonderland is good. It also is paced nicely, unlike a imagery heavy movie like Eraserhead.

It's a short review, but that's why it's good, it's a trip. SO that means get it.

DVD Review: Read the book instead!
Summary: 1 Stars

Even as a little girl, when this first came out, I was disappointed in it. Disney later admitted that he undertook his version before reading Alice, and discovered that he didn't like the main character!

It shows.

Disney's Alice is not the critical observer Carroll created at all. She is indistinguishable from all of that era's Disney heroines - helplessly feminine and mindless, but sweet. Thank goodness everyone has moved on.

Unfortunately this is a film that (like Wuthering Heights) had yet to be made. But maybe that's not so bad. Alice is all about narrative, nonsense, and a subtle humor that makes the book suitable for reading at any age.

Read the book.

Description of Alice in Wonderland (Masterpiece Edition)

Experience the magic, fun, and adventure of ALICE IN WONDERLAND like never before in this new Masterpiece Edition 2-Disc set. Join Alice as she falls into the madcap world of Wonderland and meets extraordinary characters such as Tweedledee and Tweedledum, the Mad Hatter, the Queen of Hearts, and the frantically late White Rabbit. And the fun continues with new bonus features including the Virtual Wonderland Party, the newly discovered Cheshire Cat song "I'm Odd," Mickey's "Thru the Mirror" animated short, plus sing-along songs and all-new games. Your family will want to experience this timeless Disney masterpiece again and again!
Imaginatively rendered but slightly chilly, this 1951 Disney adaptation of the Lewis Carroll classic is also appropriately surreal. Alice (voiced by Kathryn Beaumont) has all the anticipated experiences: shrinking and growing, meeting the White Rabbit, having tea with the Mad Hatter, etc. Characterization is very strong, and the Disney team worked hard to bring screen personality to Carroll's eccentric creations. For a Disney film, however, it seems more the self-satisfied sum of its inventiveness than a truly engaging experience. --Tom Keogh
