Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1
Off to see this in about an hour. We'll see how it goes. At the very least I'll get to see the IM3 trailer#2 on the big screen.

Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1
Just got back from seeing it. It was alright.
My biggest complaints? The middle dragged. I was disappointed by the witches and didn't really find them very scary. They made Oz a tad TOO unlikable for too long of the film. Also there were points when the monkey got really annoying. Never reached Jar Jar bad, but in the same ballpark. What did I like? The Kansas section. Franco and Braff (before he became the monkey) The china girl. The climax. The look! The Sam Raimi moments. Overall, good flick but I don't imagine myself seeing it again anytime soon. |

Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1

Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1
Mila keeps her voice pretty much exactly the same before and after her transformation.

Its pure Raimi style who knows if he'll ever explain it or not.

Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1
I thoroughly enjoyed the film, mostly for the raimisms thought and I liked the cast for the most part, though I can't help but imagine Robert Downey junior killing in this role. I think the main drawback was the script, the story was pretty eh.

Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1
Kunis had a screech voice that was definitely evocative of the classical Wicked Witch, but whenever she was supposed to be calm, it did still sound like Meg Griffin. But the scene where she backs her sister's call for the monkeys and when she makes Oz dance, she nails the characteristics, the cackle, and she flat out horrifies you with the same wrath-filled stare as the classic Witch.
Considering this movie and others have been attempting to recapture classic old fairy tale magic, I'd say she was much better than the female characters in Alice in Wonderland and better than Kristen Stewart in Snow White and the Huntsman, and her hammy moments were more appropriate than Charlize Theron's few missteps, though Theron made a much more consistent and intimidating villain. Not perfect, but pretty good.

Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1
Just got back. What can I say, meh pretty much sums it up. I'd almost feel sorry for what happened to Theodora if it weren't for the fact that she's so dumb/clueless that I felt she deserved what her sister did to her. If I streched really hard I could give this a 6/10. I have no love for Raimi or his cheesey ways but I guess little kids will enjoy this movie well enough. Can't say this film suprised nor did it disappoint. It's exactly the film I expected it to be. Well,at least someone else paid for my ticket so I don't have to be out of pocket for this.

Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1
I should clarify that "agree with all of this". Raimi cheese works for me 90% of the time. Here it was kinda hit or miss. Mostly miss with the monkey. I do agree with what else kedrell said.
Oh. Was anyone else disappointed by the Bruce Campbell cameo? After the BRILLIANT ones he had in all of the Spidey films, I expected much more. |

Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1
The film was entertaining and Raimi brought his style of visionary to the film. Was is a great film no but it served it purpose in allowing disney to continue making a franchise of this if they choose too.

Re: Oz: The Great and Powerful - Part 1
The best moment in the film is when Finley without speaking asks to be picked up. And Oscar ignores him.
