Family reviews: ‘Our Family Wedding,’ ‘Alice in Wonderland,’ more
Parents bottom line on “Our Family Wedding”: A bit broad and low for a wedding comedy, but barely more than a PG in terms of adult content.
Parents bottom line on “Alice in Wonderland”: Not a literal “Alice,” so don’t expect to do your book report based on it. But this “Shrek”-like 3D spin on the tale is still suitable for all ages.
