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 down a 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 Charlie, Manchester, UK ... meal 21 A made B held C given D opened 22 A through B in C all D around 23 A eat B have C give D receive 24 A nation B local C native D national 25 A more B best C most D better 26 A with B by...
