It took awhile but Disney
got it right. This is a pretty good sequel to The Wizard of Oz. The story is about
a small-time magician, played by James Franco, who is swept away
to an enchanted land and is forced into a power struggle between three witches.

Kapner did a great job of incorporating elements of the original movie so that
OZ is a seamless prequel for future generations. Casting also did a great job by having Michelle Williams and
Academy Award winner Rachel Weisz in the movie. Milus Kunis however steals the show and is
excellent. James Franco is finally showing some acting chops rather than just
using his good looks to smile his way thru movies.
Finally the make-up is outstanding. This is
however a pretty scary movie for kids.
Verdict:
Must see!
