The film premiered in London on May 10, 2016, and was theatrically released on May 27, 2016, by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. Alice then travels through time (with the "Chronosphere"), comes across friends and enemies at different points of their lives, and embarks on a race to save the Hatter before time runs out. In the film, a now 22-year-old Alice comes across a magical looking glass that takes her back to Wonderland, where she finds that the Mad Hatter is acting madder than usual and wants to discover the truth about his family.

It is based on the characters created by Lewis Carroll and is the sequel to the 2010 film Alice in Wonderland. I can only hope that it will be available on DVD someday.Alice Through the Looking Glass is a 2016 American live-action/animated fantasy adventure film directed by James Bobin, written by Linda Woolverton and produced by Tim Burton, Joe Roth, Suzanne Todd, and Jennifer Todd.
:-) The quirky nature and self-interpretation in this film is a wonderful way to introduce children to a complex and bizarre children's story. And visually, she fit the role perfectly. She brought to life the very childlike innocence and naivete of Alice while dealing so very well with interpreting Alice's very opinionated, stubborn and whimsical personality. And Kate Beckinsale's performance in that capacity was outstanding. I thought moving the story to an older Alice was wonderful. There is truly no way a child actor could handle the scope of Alice in any film. Something I've always felt critical to adapting both Alice stories is her precocious nature. It was, with very few exceptions, very true to the book, despite the difficulties associated with converting Carroll's unique style to a screenplay.
It was far and above better than Disney's attempt to turn what is already a children's book into a 'kiddie' film.
