For Those Who Wonder if “Alice in Wonderland” is Worth Watching
Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland” was probably the most anticipated movie of the year 2010. But is it any good? First of all, I should probably mention that hardcore Lewis Carroll fans may find very disappointing. The movie is merely based on the book. It features most of the same characters and a couple of the same locations, but the story is completely different. Alice is no longer a little girl, but an unconventional young woman who has the same dream of finding herself in Wonderland every night, until one day it happens in real life. Her arrival was expected. Alice is supposed to save the inhabitants from the evil Red Queen and get the reign back to her kind sister, the White Queen. She knows nothing about it, but she is meant to be the knight in shining armor, both figuratively and literally speaking.

Such movies, telling us about the life of a famous person, are always difficult to assess, because any such creations somehow pretend to be biographical ones. But in fact they are just a glance of one particular producer on the life of another individual. Of course, much depends on the actor who will perform the role of the protagonist and after watching Beautiful Mind I will agree with this once again.
“A Good Year” is a romantic comedy with action taking place in London, England, and in Provence, France. The main character (Max Skinner) is a driven bond trader in London; a workaholic, who does not take holidays or goes on vacations. He is only interested in making money and keeping up with his success. Then in a common twist of the plot Max finds out his uncle had died and left him to be the sole beneficiary of the vineyard estate in Province. He intends to sell the property, but circumstances prevent him from doing that immediately, and force him to stay there for a longer period of time. This is the place where he used to spend summer holidays when he was a little boy, which brings on the nicest memories and compels Max to reconsider his lifestyle.
