DVD Reviews of Alice in Wonderland [TV 1985]

DVD Review: Please ! Read the Book
Summary: 2 Stars

So much is lost in the attempt to make a movie of this book. What is nonsensical yet delightful comes off as silly in the translation. I cannot warm to Irwin Allen's production of "Alice" despite the very good performance of Natalie Gregory, the movie never really gets off the ground. The various stars are not at their best in their roles and actually seem miscast in many instances. I am inclined to blame the director as the comedians and actors all are talented individuals apparently not allowed to actually get into their characters. And the songs penned by Steve Allen are mediocre at best and embarrassing at worst. A shame and a waste. My advice, read the book and let your imagination do the rest. Lewis Carroll does not need Irwin Allen and neither do you.

DVD Review: Fantastic Experience!
Summary: 5 Stars

I got this product earlier than I anticipated and it was in great condition! I had a wonderful experience with this seller. Great job!

DVD Review: Child Hood Memories
Summary: 5 Stars

I loved this movie when I was little. My parents had it taped on VHS for me and my sister. I recently found it on Amazon and brought it. I will say that now watching it as an adult you notice things that as a kid you probably wouldn't! The costumes are pretty tacky and the dialouge is not so good, but it brings backs memories!

Description of Alice in Wonderland [TV 1985]

Sometimes she's too big. Or much too small. Sometimes things are backwards. And there's always too much pepper in the soup! Nothing is quite right since Alice chased a very unusual White Rabbit and stumbled into an adventure that grows curiouser and curiouser.One of the greatest childhood fantasies ever is captured in Irwin Allen's colorful all-star production adapted from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Steve Allen wrote the jolly witty songs and more than a dozen Hollywood stars join in the wondrous fun. Alice is looking for a way home. And happy to be welcomed into yours.System Requirements:Run Time: 192 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre:?CHILDREN/FAMILY UPC:?043396152151 Manufacturer No:?15215
Alice returns from Wonderland only to discover she's on the wrong side of her living room mirror at the beginning of the second half of Irwin Allen's 1985 production, with teleplay by Paul Zindel and songs by Steve Allen (the three-hour film was broken into two parts for video, the first title being Alice in Wonderland). Before you can say "curiouser and curiouser" the jabberwocky is after her. It chases Alice back to a strange land where life appears to be one giant game of chess with pieces portrayed by the likes of Carol Channing and Harvey Korman. The 7-year-old longs to be home, but that doesn't stop her from enjoying some song and dance with Tweedledum and Tweedledee (Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme), watching a bout between the lion (Ernest Borgnine) and the unicorn (Beau Bridges), or being rescued by the White Knight (Lloyd Bridges). Despite the oddly low-tech visual effects from Star Wars's John Dykstra--the jabberwocky is so clearly a guy in a dragon suit--this thrillingly kitschy movie ably entertains. Where else will you see Merv Griffin as a train conductor, Sally Struthers and Donna Mills catfighting with Vegas-worthy flower headdresses, and Jonathan Winters as a crabby Humpty Dumpty before the fall? Adults who fondly remember the '70s and '80s and children 4 and older should enjoy this version of the fabled tale. --Kimberly Heinrichs
