Have you ever read Alice In Wonderland, by Lewis Carol? I did and I really like it It’s an adventure story full of magic and danger Yesterday I saw Tim Burton’s version of the film at the cinema

This story is about Alice, who is now a teenager A man wants to marry her, but she runs away and falls downa rabbit hole She travels to Wonderland, which she has visited before as a child, and meets a lot of amazing characters on her adventures

There are a lot of good special effects in the film The Red Queen, played by Helena Bonham Carter, is very scary, and Johnny Depp is brilliant as the Mad Hatter He has acted in a lot of films before but this is my favourite one Mia Waslkowska is good as Alice; this is her first big film and I think she’s going to become a big star!

Overall, I think this is a good film for teenagers, but it’s a bit long You should see it if you like fantasy and adventure, but don’t go if you like romances: it’s not a love story

My favourite actors

I like a lot of different actors, but my real favourites are Daniel Craig and Halle Berry Daniel Craig is British and he’s a really talented actor He’s been in a lot of different kinds of films including action adventure, science fiction, and romantic drama, but he always gives an excellent performance He was brilliant in Tomb Raider as Alex West, but my favourite film is Casino Royale I think Daniel Craig is a fantastic James Bond

Halle Berry is American She was a model, but then decided to become an actress I like her because she’s beautiful She’s a good actress and I think she has a great sense of humour I’m not keen on some of her films, such as Catwoman,but her other films are excellent My favourite is X-Men which is a science fiction film She plays the main character Storm, who has the ability to change the weather

Daniel Craig and Halle Berry are both entertaining and talented actors I love watching their films
