Alice Battles Time In Alice Through The Look Glass New Trailer

Six years since we last visited Underland but this Summer we will join Alice once again as she returns to save her friend  Mad Hatter battling time himself. As Alice Trough The Looking Glass  takes an step closer Disney up the ante with a new (probably final) UK trailer highlights it’s going be a mind bending experience  when we fall into the rabbit hole!

Tim Burton’s 2010 Alice In Wonderland might have divided the critics and the film fans it delivered the $$$. Now a sequel is only weeks away but time is against Alice if she expects to help her bestest friend!

In Alice Looking Through The Looking Glass we return to Alice Kingsleigh (Mia Wasikowska) who has spent the past few years following in her father’s footsteps and sailing the high seas. Upon her return to London, she comes across a magical looking glass which she disvocers helps her return to the fantastical realm of Underland Rejoining her friends the White Rabbit (Michael Sheen), Absolem (Alan Rickman), the Cheshire Cat (Stephen Fry) and the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp), who is not himself. The Hatter has lost his Muchness, so Mirana (Anne Hathaway) sends Alice on a quest to borrow the Chronosphere, a metallic globe inside the chamber of the Grand Clock which powers all time. Returning to the past, she comes across friends and enemies at different points in their lives, and embarks on a perilous race to save the Hatter before time runs out.

Visually the whole design set up of Alice Through The Looking Glass looks a visual treat. Tim Burton and Lewis Carroll are like a match made in heaven, even though he’s only producing his stamp is still on the film. However there also feels a more comedic tone too which is essentially new director James Bobin (The Muppets) stamp on the film. The actual plot of the film is very simple and Bobin has the skills to give that story solidity. He’s certainly captured the spirit of Alice In Wonderland even if things do feel a bit disjointed. Sadly nothing can be really done for CGI-heavy but Bobin seems to have made things a little more tangible, hopefully bring a better outcome critically for the sequel.

Alice Through the Looking Glass is set for a 27th May 2016  UK, Ireland and USA release date. Starring the voices of  Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter,Sacha Baron Cohen ,Rhys Ifans, Matt Lucas, Ed Speelers, Toby Jones,  Timothy Spall, Paul Whitehouse, and Barbara Windsor.
