Most critics point out that this version only makes remote sense to those who are already totally familiar with the original book, and can assess what is included and what is omitted. Although I was interested to see what Miller made of the story, I didn't find it satisfying. Wonderland (body) and Looking-Glass (mind) are two of the greatest books ever written, and I don't think Miller here does Wonderland justice. I liked Sellers and Cook, although I believe Miller didn't; but the Queen was disappointing and should have given much more powerful beheading orders. Muggeridge was a surprising actor. I suppose it was entertaining to see this cornucopia of well-known British names. They must have appeared for very little pay, I assume.
