Down the rabbit hole
3 October 2016
Malice in Wonderland is a modern gangland reworking of Alice in Wonderland transplanted to modern day North East via London. Well it stars cockney geezer Danny Dyer as black cab driver, Whitey also known as White Rabbit.

Maggie Grace is Alice Dodgson, an American law student living in London who ends up in a daze after being hit by Whitey's cab and ends up in a surreal underground world of fairgrounds, nightclubs, gangsters. There are fleeting appearances from a night time DJ, Felix Chester. Homophobic bouncers Dom and Dean Tweedle as well as other Wonderland characters with a twist who aid or hinder Alice.

The film is an interesting misfire. It never quiet gels or is coherent enough. I think the film was also hampered by its low budget. It still has a surreal and inventive element to it.
