If you wander down a rabbit hole into the land of make-believe and nibble on cookies not meant for humans, it [makes] little difference how the episodes are linked. The important characters are there, and they are amusing.

It is a piece of brassy, empty-headed slapstick that makes the same use of Carroll's sentiment and wit that a baby would make of a Dresden shepherdess: bang it about and break it to bits.

All this makes for comedy and an agreeable lightness to match such delicacy and charm as that of the picture's floral sequence and the underwater ballet of the Little Oysters.

A vibrant and beautifully restored presentation of Disney’s beloved animated classic.
