This movie is about a 9-year-old whose obsession is Alice in Wonderland. Although she has mental illness but the school sets up a play about Alice in Wonderland more like a musical and Phoebe requests to play Alice but everyone wants a try out for Alice (which is not a responsibility...) Phoebe has a sister named Olivia, played by the charmer Bailee Madision at about 7 years of age. Phoebe is obviously older than her sister but has a spitting illness, when something doesn't go her way that makes her angry, she starts spitting on people which I kinda eww'ed about. I don't think this film could be for little children due to strong foul language and rough crude humor. But in that case, I really enjoyed a kind of spin-off of Alice in Wonderland called Phoebe in Wonderland but there's also other versions of Alice in Wonderland with a character-name-in-title thing, Malice in Wonderland that almost rhymes with Alice and some other versions I can't think of. Phoebe in Wonderland was tres delightful and imaginative for me, with a little inspiration and imagination, you get to see your own wonderland only through a Child's eye. Which is called Child's point of view. I'm young but I couldn't believe how much I enjoyed every minute of this movie and laugh at every five humorous minutes. It's comic and drama, good for the whole family viewing. In that case, it reminds me of movies like My Girl but different. She as a friendly sister and is already taught to get over an over dramatic little sister. Bailee Madison still had her charming touch on Bridge to Terabithia but still wins the hearts of millions at only her tender age of ten. Every actress and actor did well performing dramatic acting and comedy mixture, well done.
