Movie Releases: Alice in Wonderland and Brooklyn’s Finest
Friday, March 5, 2010 7:00AM - By Anet Hovhanesian
We don’t have a lot of choices this week. In one corner we have the blockbuster film with director Tim Burton and the versatile and talented Johnny Depp together again in a remake of fan favorite fantasy film Alice in Wonderland. In the film we have 19-year-old Alice returns to the magical world from her childhood adventure. The family adventure brings back all the characters from the Mad Hatter to the Cheshire cat to Tweedledee/Tweedledum.
In the other corner we have an action drama that is filled with more leading male actors than one movie should be able to handle. Brooklyn’s Finest stars Richard Gere, Don Cheadle, Ethan Hawke AND Wesley Snipes all together in one movie about three unconnected Brooklyn cops wind up at the same deadly location after enduring vastly different career paths. If there is one thing Antoine Fuqua’s thriller will not lack, it is talent on screen.
