Whether subjected to an adventure scene or particularly intense emotional moment, the impact resonates deeply with the orchestrated soundtrack to complement the on-screen fantasy come to life. In addition, the soundtrack, rendered by the amazingly talented Danny Elfman, is spectacular and helps bring every single scene to life. With riveting splashes of color, expertly crafted scenes, and artistic camera work, viewers are exposed to the enthralling world once more. As far as production value, the directors did a grand job portraying the Underland as the wonderland it is. In Alice Through the Looking Glass, viewers see the return of Depp (aforementioned Hatter Tarrant Hightopp), Iracebeth aka The Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter: Fight Club 1999, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street 2007), Mirana aka The White Queen, and many more including the vocal talents of the late Alan Rickman ( Die Hard 1988, Harry Potter series) as Absolem, and the iconic Cheshire Cat (Stephen Fry: Sherlock Holmes: V for Vendetta 2005, A Game of Shadows 2011).

Without giving too much away, Alice must brave the powers that be once more, traveling through the oceans of time, competing against Time himself (Sacha Baron Cohen: Borat 2006, Brüno 2009) to save Hatter’s family from their grisly demise. Hatter is convinced his family, who he formerly believed deceased, is actually alive, although no one believes him, causing him to become sicker and sicker. The lovable Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp: Blow 2001, Pirates of the Caribbean series) has fallen ill, more mental than usual, and the White Queen (Anne Hathaway: The Devil Wears Prada 2006, Interstellar 2014) requests that Alice help the ailing Hatter as the rest of the returning gang are unable to help him. Sure enough, just as any time Alice is presented with a conundrum, she finds herself once again in the magical, fantastical world of Underland where everything is not as it should be.
