I did enjoy Oz the Great and Powerful. Yes, I've seen better movies, I've also seen a lot of movies that are a lot worse. I think that one of the elements that made this movies so-so for me is that I didn't watch it in 3D. It is OBVIOUSLY made to be watched in 3D. There are many scenes that I'm sure would have been amazing in 3D that fell short-of-the-mark in the regular version. I enjoyed the actors, but there is something off-setting about the Wicked Witch of the West's face. It's almost as if she's had botox and looks plastic. With all of the advancements in special effects, I think that they could have made it better. I felt as if it distracted me and took away from the scenes. I do recommend seeing this movie. I will probably go again, and watch it in 3D next time. I will definitely purchase the video when it comes out.

Oz The Great and Powerful has great things going for it. The visuals were vibrant and beautiful.The CGI is really good. This movie has the best use of 3D I've seen outside of an animated film (better than Avatar). It's worth an IMAX 3D ticket. The supporting actors (especially the CGI characters) are excellent. Their dialogue, believability, and comedic relief are top notch. They make this movie very playful and fun! So what's not so great? The main characters. Their acting, dialogue, and interactions come off as acting 101. There is very little character development. Franco's character comes off as one dimensional to a fault. Mila Kunis is not believable in her role at all. It's a shame that the main actors do not capture the whimsy of the original Oz movie. Despite this, this movie is worth seeing. Just don't expect a masterpiece on par with its inspiration. There are no scenes during or after the credits. If you like my reviews, add me as a fan. I'll add you back

I was so excited to see this movie that I even purchased, for the first time ever, my tickets in advance. It had a very slow beginning, I didn't think Franco was that good of an actor. Thank goodness the witches were AWESOME! There were some touching scenes but no tears! Ending was very good compared to the rest of the movie!

This film surprised me with its depth, deep emotion, great acting, exciting and compelling story. I honestly can say that my eyes "leaked" a few times or yes, I cried. I also exulted in excitement and enchantment and was surprised a few times, even disturbed, because the film does not spare us from the true nature of humans which means you feel the sadness, fear, jealousy, hurt, yet exultatation and excitement of the journey and some special moments of good, hearty, honest laughter. The special effects are dazzllng and totally work to tell the story. Now I know how the wizard of Oz came to be and I am glad for this worthwhile telling of his story, along with some shocking and revelatory moments regarding the 3 witch sisters, too! Go and see it: feel a myriad of emotions, be touched and don't be ashamed to shed a tear or two and be dazzled!
