Oz the Great and Powerful (2013)

Date seen: 12 March 2013
Rated PG, 130 mins
IMDB User Rating: 6.9
Metascore: 44/100 (User Score: 6.2)
Tomatometer: 61% Fresh (Audience: 65%)

Movie Notebook Score: 7.00/10
Recommendation: B - Recommended for parents and children.
Grade: GT - Watch if you want to have a Good Time

Notes:
What is commendable for this flick is the animation, costume, editing, and production design--though, these may not be enough to please the closed-minded. This is way different from the 1939 The Wizard of Oz. But very similar in giving a moral lesson, this time, the power of believing. The performances from Oscars favorites James Franco, Michelle Williams, Rachel Weisz, and Mila Kunis may not have been excellent--as expected for this film genre--still, surely are satisfactory. 

After watching this film:
You'll feel fine.

For your consideration:
  • Editing
  • Costume Design
  • Visual Effects
