IMDB.COM Page: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1623205/

Logline: A prequel to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz that tells how the Wizard arrived in Oz became the ruler.



Thoughts: Visually speaking, the trailer is fantastic...and it's Sam Raimi, who many of us in here dig or seem to like, etc.

I'm just not sure about the cast: Franco as The Wizard? K....

Jul 13th 2012
5

Jul 13th 2012

You're right - and what they contain has to make sense.
Jul 13th 2012
8

Jul 13th 2012
9
I'm just saying I don't see how this makes sense as a prequel...
Jul 13th 2012

Jul 16th 2012

i felt emotional as shit watching that.
Jul 14th 2012
14
um, what? why?
Jul 14th 2012
17
      It's going to be good but I doubt it will be great
Jul 14th 2012
18
           um, okay.
Jul 14th 2012
19
So the green hand at the end belongs to Mila Kunis character right?
Jul 14th 2012
20
she could be...
Jul 14th 2012
21
I didn't believe a trailer could be great and powerful,
Jul 14th 2012
22
moving, isn't it.
Jul 14th 2012
23
The emotional reactions are disturbing.
Jul 15th 2012
28
basically.
Jul 15th 2012
29
Has its moments, but feels stakeless and is thus fairly blah.
Mar 08th 2013

Basically co-sign everything Frank said.

This person hated it more than I did, but our complaints are similar:
Mar 08th 2013
34
I might have to watch this online....
Mar 08th 2013
35
      RE: I might have to watch this online....
Mar 08th 2013
36
           I can see the 3D possibly being good. It could also help...
Mar 08th 2013
38
           I forgot about the 3D option...so
Mar 08th 2013

RE:I am kinda scared to watch it
Mar 08th 2013

Here's 3 good reviews
Mar 09th 2013
40
its was a powerful EHHHHH
Mar 09th 2013
41
It can't be a "great kids movie" if it's a 2 out of 5.
Mar 10th 2013
43
      yeah, that's what i meant
Mar 10th 2013
49
A five word review: Why not just make Wicked?
Mar 10th 2013
44
Baffling, ain't it?
Mar 10th 2013
45
      Yeah...the witches are protrayed as far too weak and deliberate
Mar 10th 2013
47
           damn good points
Mar 10th 2013
50
                Kunis *may* have the chops, but this wasn't the vehicle for it.
Mar 10th 2013
54
                Yeah she may not have had the chops either
Mar 11th 2013
63
                     Making her debut inside a ball of fire doesn't do it for you?
Mar 12th 2013
65
                          It didn't because she was round faced and busty.
Mar 12th 2013
66
1. Kunis was awful. 2. Too many blurry shots of Oz.
Mar 10th 2013
46
all agreed, especially:
Mar 10th 2013
48
I wish I didn't have high hopes for it. That's my biggest issue.
Mar 10th 2013
52
      ....there's a next one?
Mar 10th 2013
55
           It's rumored to be opening at 80 million.
Mar 10th 2013
57
                *hangs himself in the apple field*
Mar 10th 2013
58
                I actually wouldn't mind a prequel to this prequel.
Mar 10th 2013
59
more very good points
Mar 10th 2013
51
      You can have a protagonist who's a dick.
Mar 10th 2013
53
           Agreed, and you nailed the reasons why it failed here.
Mar 10th 2013
56
Incidentally, WB is rereleasing the 1939 film later this year...IN 3D.
Mar 10th 2013

Mar 11th 2013
