I found this movie to be rather good. I can't say how much like the original books it is because...well I could never make it through the original books even when money was involved. Truth be told I never even got Alice to Wonderland to me they were that bad.
However, the "Looking Glass Wars" is a different story the first book is very good the second is a bit harder to read. A very good take on an old classic I think.
Now I know many of you are thinking "Oh God not another Tim Burton film" however I say give it a chance. It's very good in my opinion and quite different. It's as if someone took the original Alice in Wonderland books, mixed in the Looking Glass Wars, added a bit of Tim Burton, threw in some crack and told them they couldn't come out till they had something and I think they manged to pull it off.
Sure it's a bit weird but at the same time this is "Alice in Wonderland" that story what I hear was weird anyway and every remake twisted-make and so on has been just as weird so really there isn't much to lose. Sure some of the characters are a little strange but that seems to make them all the more unique and interesting not to mention memorable.
I personally say it is worth the money to check this out and if you don't want to spend a lot then go to the early showing where it is only 5 bucks then not to much is lost. I say give it a go it's not the usual Tim Burton movies. I very much enjoyed it. ^_^
