Malice in Wonderland

A wacky modern twist from screenwriter Jayson Rothwell and director Simon Fellows, on Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, set in modern-day ­gangland Britain. Alice (Maggie Grace) is now an American billionaire's ­daughter who is lost in a surreal ­criminal underworld. Danny Dyer is Whitey, a very bizarre white ­rabbit: a London cabbie obsessed with ­punctuality. Dyer has some funny lines, and he makes the most of them, proving that he is ­actually a good performer, all too ­often marooned in endless geezer knees-ups. But otherwise it's a bit pointless and heavy-handed.
