Cox's 'Wonderland' is about the gruesome Wonderland murders (obviously!) that took place in the early 80s. The murder case itself was never solved and remained a mystery. Sadly, the movie does not do much to to cast light on it... Full review

the film captures the sleaze of the early 80's coke culture/drug culture and tells the story of people you couldn't possibly care about; except that they were infamous. it's like a historical portrait, what they wore, how they spoke and what... Full review

Then you will love Wonderland. They are basically the same story but more of the *****ty side of John Holmes' life. The movie is very intertaining and acted out perfectly. As for the story how can you get better than a... Full review

Val Kilmer, giving his best performance in years, plays him with a desperate charm that allows the film to remain engaging even at its seediest moments.....a shamelessly postmodern scene in which Paris Hilton cameos as a pornstar's escort named Barbie (to the accompaniment of 'Girls on Film' on the soundtrack)..... ...

No stranger to fading limelight himself, Kilmer succeeds in capturing the two extremes of the man with the biggest `part' in modern cinema -....criticisms of the movie made on its theatrical release....unlike the real John Holmes, Kilmer could rightly grumble....Cox's screenplay isn't able to illuminate the murkier shades of his character;.... ...

Far from perfect, Wonderland remains a fascinating tale, inventively told.
But while Wonderland is too preoccupied with its multiple roughed-up film stock and restless, split-screen editing to try telling a coherent story, that's very much the point...

That may sound like a Band-aid approach, but it does serve the movie well.
We soon hear of the brutal murders that took place on Wonderland Avenue, and it seems apparent that John had some connection to them.
The movie lacks great depth or coherence

Despite a non-chronological structure and the mystery lying within the contradicting versions of the story, Wonderland suffers greatly from decisions made in the writing process.
It isnt that Wonderland needed to show Holmes at work in order to present its violent centerpiece, but skimming over his career makes it difficult to understand how and why he ended up as part of the Wonderland gang.
