Alice In Wonderland [VHS] [1951]

Wonderful classic Disney cartoon So funny

Good value cd is pristine I would buy again brought it because it reminded me of my child hood memories would recommend

It is almost unbelievable, but a cursory reading of some of the reviews would suggest that some Amazon customers have not read, or even heard of, the Lewis Carroll classics "Alice Through The Looking Glass" and "Alice In Wonderland." This film is one of the most mature and thoughtful of all Disney films, and manages to capture some of the dreamy, frightening, enchanting and nightmarish atmosphere of the books. Alice is a children's story in name only: it is best described as a semi-benign nightmare of epic proportions. Alice's chase down the rabbit hole leads to her encounters with many odd characters culled from both books, from Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee to the Walrus and the Carpenter to the Cheshire Cat and the Caterpillar. Much has been made of the caterpillar with the hookah, not without some justification, one feels, and likewise the Cheshire Cat - all very surreal and distant. When Alice grows very quickly after eating the biscuit, the next 10 minutes of images are beyond all doubt of an extremely lewd nature, and once you have grasped this it becomes very obvious. I am astonished that Disney got away with it as it is so blatant, but it is charmingly done ..... I have always thought this but have seen it suggested elsewhere in print only recently. The music in the DVD is very good and the voices are just superb. Alice's precise, confused, petulant and adolescent nature is well-captured by the ever-excellent Kathryn Beaumont. Disney Stalwart Pat O'Malley sings and acts his way through the film in superb form (T Dum and T Dee, Walrus and Carpenter)and Sterling Holloway is as classy as ever. Songs that really work are "Unbirthday" "Painting the Roses Red" "Father William" and many others. Highly recommended, and any film that has one Dink Trout as the King of Hearts gets my vote. Probably the closest Disney ever came to getting the right "feel" to a film and in places this is actually pretty subversive. Watch it again with a very open mind .............. twee it ain't.

Alice in Wonderland has to be one of the better known Disney classics, particularly thanks to the updated spin-off starring Johnny Depp, but I think it's criminally underated! This is the story of a girl thrown into a cartoon world where the bizarre and the impossible collide. We jump straight down that rabbit hole with Alice and find our way into all sorts of trouble including The Mad Hatter's Tea Parties, a crazy cheshire cat who keeps popping up everywhere and that pesky rabbit we just can't keep up with. As a child, so I'm clearly demonstrating my nostalgia for Disney right now, I really enjoyed this film. I particularly loved the cat and mouse game of chase between Alice and the rabbit, the colours are beautiful and the world of Wonderland is like no other. As an adult though, it is so bizarre. There are moments where you do question what the writers were up to whilst they were thinking this up but despite the touch of insanity, the unpredicatability of the film makes it unique in comparison to a few other Disney movies. As with all Disney classics there are elements you just can't help but love. I notice new things everytime I watch this that I missed, or ignored, as a child. For that reason, I recommend this to anyone - old or young.

The VHS videos are in very good working order. They are well looked after and very good quality, all packaged very well. Delivery was fast and allround service was excellent again, as I have purchased from this seller often.

We had an older DVD of this and were surprised at how much richer the colours were in this blu-ray release. It's difficult to say whether or not the brighter colours are an improvement as they're not the ones I'm accustomed to. But the picture quality is superb. There's not a spot on a singleo frame. It's like the film is brand new. Sound clarity is also greatly improved over my old DVD and I found myself hearing pieces of dialogue as if for the first time. The story is very entertaining and can hold the attention of my four-year-old girl for multiple viewings. There aren't too many songs in the film, which personally I prefer, and the tunes are quirky and unsentimental. There are lots of extras on the blu-ray, including an introduction by Walt Disney, lengthy featurettes and some sections of animation as pencil drawings. We haven't watched them all yet. I believe that the deleted scene, Pig and Pepper, only appears on the bundled DVD. The blu-ray is presented with black side-bars which can be filled with artwork by selecting Disney-View. The DVD is full screen which is as it should be. Blu-ray audio and subtitles are available in English, Dutch, Portuguese and Spanish. The DVD differs and has only English, French and Dutch. My blu-ray is printed with a B/C region logo although the box itself states A/B/C.

These sellers were brilliant. We bought several VHS tapes and not only did they arrive on time and in good condition but they sent an additional VHS tape as a free gift. We are very grateful. Will buy from the same seller again.

Alice in Wonderland is my favourite Children's book, ever since I read it when I was ten years old. This animation does not disappoint, and captures all the peculair characters, enchantment and surreal oddness perfectly. My favourite is the Cheshire Cat .....

voila un dvd tout particulierement fantastique!un dvd vraiment peu cher pour tous ce qu'il contient avec des bonus inédit et le dessin animé toujours aussi beau, on ne s'en lasse pas! a avoir chez soit!

Edición perfecta de esta Película. Los extras son bastantes y entretenidos. Trae el español de toda la vida y el lavado de cara que le han pasado a la imagen es muy bueno. De 10.

UNO DEI FILM PREFERITI DELLA MIA INFANZIA. PRESO PER UN REGALO CHE HA FATTO FELICE GRANDI E PICCINI. OTTIMA QUALITÀ VIDEO
