Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

schnoidl I'd really like to like this show, but it's baffling how it can be as good as it is, but not better. Some of the writing is entertaining, but there are so many big goofs. The casting, with the charisma-free Jafar and that weird overreaching Queen with the weird mouth, the dirt-free costumes, those would both be enough to ruin it, but there is the really unforgivable CG that really pushes it way past maybe. How can you know how to do complex facial animation and camera tracking, but mess up the basic black values (see the really awful Cheshire Cat)? The shots where they're walking on the spotted path, it's so obvious that they aren't in the scene, total disconnect. when Jafar and Boatmouth are on the balcony, it's just not even close. I just don't understand how a team of people can create a gorgeous complex boiling sea, but screw up something so basic as putting a head against a sky? how do such glaring mistakes get okayed? It's nice to see a big network taking a chance on something as trippy and imaginative as this, but sad to it likely fail because the forces of cheapercheaper/Dumb It Down once again prevailed.

Couch Potato12345 I barely ever bother writing reviews but this show is so appallingly bad, I just had to - to offer fair warning to other viewers. First, let's start with the acting - or the lack thereof. The only exception, being Naveen Andrews - everyone else is laughably amateurish. Both female leads - Alice and the Red Queen - are yawn-inducing one-dimensional and fail abominably to pull off strong characters; Sophie Lowe's depiction of Alice's feisty spirit is about as convincing as the Red Queen's collagen-pumped lips being passed of as au naturale. (Seriously - what is up with that?). While I was intrigued by the initial setting of Alice being cooped in an Asylum, they simply didn't take that theme far enough - having her shed any nuance of bitterness / angst aside to suddenly become the silly and awkwardly coquettish girl within minutes of meeting Cyrus (seriously... is that really the best name for a genie from Agrabah...) I get that it's a love story, but they could've taken their time with it ala Snow and Charming from OUAT. Where OUAT at least started strong with credible actors and clever back-stories for so many beloved fairytale characters - its spin off fails to deliver any of these traits. Even the costumes seem to lack OUAT's classy flair and clearly its budget - the Red Queen's red-on-red-on-red (yes I know she's the RED Queen but there are other shades beside tacky-chili-pepper-red) dresses pale in comparison to Regina's boldly dramatic Evil Queen gowns. (Admittedly the first dress we see Alice in when she meets Cyrus is pretty albeit predictable. Would've been way cooler to see remnants of her traumatic experience in the Asylum in the real world, as part of her wardrobe even in Wonderland). And it's all such a shame - there's so many layers and potential about the story and its characters - I'm really quite taken aback by how underwhelming this turned out to be. All in all - I've seen better productions on YouTube.

zactac In the ever-growing (and confusing) world of "Once" we now take a prolonged trip to Wonderland in this stylish spin-off to the big hit "Once Upon a Time." "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland" is the story of Alice, a young girl who travels to the wondrous world, where she meets exciting and even terrifying people. However, when she returns home she tells her father of her amazing adventures but he doesn't believe her. To prove her sanity she spends many years of her life searching for proof for her father. Then she meets a genie named Cyrus. The two of them go on new adventures and fall in love. However, the Red Queen tracks them down and apparently kills Cyrus in front of Alice. In her world she is about to go through a terrible procedure to forget about Cyrus and her adventures. Just in time, the Knave of Hearts along with the White Rabbit save her and tell her Cyrus is alive. Now the three of them go to Wonderland to save Cyrus and liberate Wonderland from the hold of the Red Queen and Jafar.To make an original series and make it feel fresh is hard to do. To make a spin-off series and make it feel fresh is nearly impossible to do. However, this show does feel fresh and full of energy. The world introduced here is full of vibrant characters and a fantastic cast with much depth put into their roles.While the entire cast is wonderful it is Sophie Lowe as Alice that makes this such a delightful show to watch. For so many years Alice has been a damsel in distress yet, the tables are turned in this enchanting series. Lowe brings much personality and depth to a role that could've very easily been stereotyped. Alice is clever, witty, kind, and even tough as nails. She might be interested in finding her true love but she isn't willing to wait around for him to save her. It is really refreshing to see.Just like the parent series "Wonderland" has many twists and surprises around the corner to lead up to an interesting climax. With interesting characters, great chemistry between the cast, fun and intriguing villains, and a wonderful love story that does not feel forced "Wonderland" is a truly enchanting story that will hopefully live up to its promise.

geniesayer1212 My problem with this show, lies mainly with the writing. To me, the writing is as cookie cutter as they come. When I watch or read something, I like whichever formulaic approach is taken in writing the plot, to be hidden beneath layers of good scenes, action, and dialogue. With this show, I constantly feel distracted by the fact that the formula is staring right at me the entire time. Its almost as if the writers are fresh out of a classroom and afraid to experiment with tweaking known working formulas just enough to make the show more engaging, and less run of the mill. Thats my main gripe with the show. Some others include: - The marshmallow swamp scene seems out of place. This is Wonderland, not Candyland. - The actor's lines seem forced and could be written a lot better. - The twists aren't all that unexpected barring the Wonderland / Aladdin mash up.Which makes me think a stand alone series for Aladdin might have been the better route all together.-Special effects from the early nineties. The chroma keying is ugly. There's no excuse for being able to see the lines where the actors have been cut and pasted onto scenes in this day and age. Especially when Disney owns the company broadcasting the show.With all that being said, there are a few things I like.The Aladdin mash up. (Again wish it were its own series though.)The acting really isn't that bad. They just don't have much to work with when reading the atrocious lines that the writers wrote.The prospect of a girl fight between Alice and the Queen lol.All in all I think the show rates around more of a 6. It falls victim to that whole great idea, poor execution thing.
