I recently saw the new Alice in Wonderland movie. Visually it was nice, but I felt the story was weak and not fun. I've seen a number of Tim Burton movies and the the only one I've enjoyed was Batman.

Batman was good but definitely not one of Tim Burtons best films. You should take a look at Edward Scissorhands or the Nightmare Before Christmas instead.

I thought Alice was classic Tim Burton and a much better film than Avatar.

I thought it looked amazing, but was really boring. I was just waiting for it to end. I read the book years ago and I remember it as being fantastically strange. I must re read it. But the movie was very dull with no real storyline.

I was really disappointed. It is the last time I see a Tim Burton movie. They all look the same and are boring. Apart from Edward Scissorhands.

How could you possibly enjoy what Burton did to Batman? Dreadful, dreadful film. I saw Alice in Wonderland the other day. It was meh.

I didn't like it. But I haven't liked any movies Tim Burton's directed other than Beetlejuice and Peewee's Big Adventure.

I have seen most of Tim Burton's movies, including Edward Scissorhands and The Nightmare Before Christmas. Not impressed with his style, I swear this is the last Tim Burton movie I'm seeing.

I really wanted to walk out of the movie, but was with a group of friends.

My students thought it was beautiful but boring. They thought the same about Avatar.

The more I think about it, the more I dislike it.
