"Bridge to Wonderland" is adapted from the fairy tale novel "The Bridge to Trebizia" written to her son by Catherine Patterson, who has won many Newbury Awards. It tells a moving, burning imagination and wisdom. The legend of sparks also includes a fantasy kingdom known only by the protagonists, Guice and Leslie. This imaginative world is expressed by director Gabor Chubo with images, full of difficulties, and also inspires millions of people who truly believe in the miracles that imagination can bring. Unlike general fantasy films that use special effects as a selling point and pursue gorgeous scenes, "Bridge to Wonderland" pays more attention to the characterization and growth experience of the boy Giss. The use of special effects is very restrained, and even the imagined scenes are displayed. It is very real, but it highlights the rich spiritual world of the two protagonists. The protagonist Guise Aarens is a child abandoned by the goddess of luck, not loved by his parents, and is deceived in school. However, the appearance of the beautiful girl Leslie Bo changed everything about him. Guice and Leslie are very different, both in family and in character. However, when the two children shared their inner secrets, they knew and cherished each other and had a more common world. The imaginative Leslie showed a magical world for Guise. She named it "Trebisia". To enter there, it takes a test of courage-using only a rope to cross a wide river . In this imaginary space, Guice and Leslie are the king and queen respectively, and around them are some incredible creatures and evil forces that need to be overthrown. They are no longer troubled by what happens in the real world, but run this magical land with their imagination, where there will always be amazing adventures and unattainable dreams. Although "Trebicia" is framed in the imagination, it is everywhere against the real world outside. Every fantasy creature has a real body in the real world, such as those who bully Guice and Leslie in school every day The little overlords of the United States have become the incarnation of evil: Gary Fuchcher has become a long-haired vulture-half man and half eagle; Scott Hogg is a half man and half squirrel monster; of course the bully in the school The boss, Janice Avery, becomes the ultimate enemy that Guice and Leslie must destroy in "Trebisia", showing the image of a giant. When imagination surpassed life and they themselves were quietly changed, Guise became confident and brave, and happier. They apply the courage and skills learned in the imaginary world to the real world. So not only did they play tricks on the students who bullied them, but they also understood. Regarding his father’s neglect, Guise also started Revolt. However, this angelic girl left Guice in an accident and changed the tone of the entire film. It turns out that "Trebisia" can also help Guice deal with more serious and heavier challenges in life. It is also in this part that the audience's heart is completely immersed in sadness and grace. But precisely because of the sadness of the passing away, this fairy tale-like story makes people linger.
