Movies that feel likeAlice in Wonderland (1951)

On a golden afternoon, wildly curious young Alice tumbles into the burrow and enters the merry, madcap world of Wonderland full of whimsical escapades.

If you loved Alice in Wonderland, the closest films we have are Peter Pan (1953), Cinderella (1950) and Sleeping Beauty (1959). All three share Alice in Wonderland's whimsical and warm feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (1977).
