Now, she needs a change. In the movie, she is vested with the power to return to the fantasy world that she had previously visited. She comes across many characters that she saw before. But, one person is not there. It is none other than Johnny Depp. Mia goes to his place, and much to her shock, she finds that his health is dilapidating. His family had been torn apart, and he sticks on to the belief that they are still alive. Now, the time machine comes to Mia’s aid. What happens next is the crux of the story.
Analysis
The director of this sequel is James Robin, and the prequel had been directed by Burton. There were many positive features in the prequel by Burton that hit the screens in 2010. These positive features are absent in the present venture. However, there is a lighter vein in the movie that proves to be its asset.

is not in the sequel, and he is conspicuous by his absence. But, his voice in the opening scene makes up for that.
There is a problem when making sequels to any movie. That problem is in the form of plenty of clichés. The vibrant roles that were obvious in the original movie are lacking in the present venture. The story goes for a flashback, but the characters of Red Queen and White Queen are less interesting.
Star Performances:
Most of the actors in the story have given clichéd performances, and there is a lack of weight to the characters played by them. The performances in the original were far better. Johnny Depp is as same as before without anything new to offer. Mia Wasikowska has put in a decent performance in the movie. The supporting actors, whose performance stole the show in the original movie, are seen making very scant appearances.

Verdict:
Alice Through the Looking Glass may prove a visual treat to those who do not carry Carroll’s excellent story in mind.
