Very well executed
Just what I expected
An unexpected masterpiece
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
As a bonus, they didn't make it a musical! I like musicals but not with today's crap 'music'. This has an outstanding cast, phenomenal eye candy, fantastic FX, a good story AND the funny is almost magical. It's been quite a while but I'm still hopeful we'll get a sequel! I can watch this every couple of years.
Connect unification to censorship, and the equivalent of the unification being rational is the irrational separation of separation and openness - the irrational separation of separation and interaction.Separation is interaction. The irrational separation of separation and separation is the same the irrational separation of reality and reality - the irrational reality of reality and reality.Reality and reality is unification and unification. Unification and unification is an oversight. The irrational reality of oversight is the rational fantasy of attentiveness - the rational fantasy of professionalism.A rational fantasy, is a fantasy that's real - a fantasy that's critical. Professionalism is also criticism. The rational fantasy of professionalism is the same as a fantasy that's critical of criticism.Fantasy is the absence of rules. The absence of rules which are critical of criticism is an absence of criticism that's critical of criticism.The criticism of criticism is the fantasy of fantasy. A fantasy of the fantasy of fantasy is the fantasy of fantasy which isn't the fantasy of fantasy - a fantasy of the fantasy of fantasy is a fantasy of the rejection of fantasy having no authority. A fantasy of the fantasy of fantasy is the reality of the rejection of fantasy having authority. The central flaw, of Oz the Great and Powerful, is the importance of the importance of no fantasy - the importance of the non-importance of fantasy.The movie's preoccupation is to take status away from the mystical: for starters, the mystical can't possibly have any status, so then why in the hell should Oz the Great and the Powerful presume the right to treat the mystical as something which can be categorized?Giving magic to reality doesn't have to come at the expense of giving reality to magic
The Wizard's Journey to Oz.Starring James Franco, Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis and Rachel Weisz.Written by Mitchell Kapner, David Lindsay-Abaire, based on the original stories by L.Frank Baum.Directed by Sam Raimi.If you want to watch a fun, family film at Christmas you can't really do better than this.It has all the ingredients to keep you glued to the screen. It's funny, imaginative, well acted and will make you feel warm and fuzzy in all the right places, It tells the story of what happened immediately before Dorothy and Toto arrived on Oz and it is faithful to the original movie.I also liked how they included the the land of china from the original book by L. Frank Baum. That was a nice touch. This is fun with a capital F. Perfect for Christmas.9/10
I thought this film shouldn't be ever made since it really does destroy a bit of 'Wizard of Oz'. The Wizard was not meant to be a young dude, he was meant to be an old guy that is lovable and very jolly. James Franco was a bad choice to play as the wizard, he just doesn't have that in him. He's a good actor but like his other movie 'The Interview' and on this, these are the worst movies he has ever done in his film career. I meant it! It was also a really bad choice for Mila Kunis to play the Wicked Witch because she really acts too good to be a villain. The makeup wasn't even great on her, it made her look like she was having botox or allergic to it. For a beautiful talent actress like herself, don't put on too makeup or else it'll be a disaster! I didn't even like the fact she became green just because she ate a green apple. That never happen, the witch was born green, she wasn't even pale, could they not concentrate more on the 1939 film? I guess they didn't which is stupid! I would not show this to my future kids to this because it's just a terribly bad made movie!
