One that was my favorite was the allusion to water weakness of the witch - when she cried, the tears burnt her face.Īs for the witches themselves, well they are also our connection to the classic movie - we finally get to meet the Wicked Witch of the East, Evanora. There are also many references to The Wizard of Oz - the flowers that bloom on their own (incredible 3D effect), the red sand the bad witch uses, the orb in which she sees her enemies and a really clever one - when Oscar crosses over to Oz he flies.over the rainbow. We have all of those magical locations known from 1939 classic - emerald city, poppy field, munchkin land or whatever the official name is and there are few new things including the gigantic waterfall and China Town - where China figurines live. What I really liked about the movie was that the land of Oz was a character on its own. There are also munchkins (this time, obviously politically correct), creepy tooth fairies ripped off straight from Snow White and the Huntsman and some pretty cool references to cowardly lion and scarecrow. There are another colorful characters here that will eventually become Oscar's allies - cute flying monkey, broken china doll and the fair and wise witch Glinda ( Michelle Williams). Evanora is cunning and clever unlike her sweet sister and she suspects Oz isn't the great wizard after all. They travel to Emerald castle where we get to meet another witch, Theodora'a sister - Evanora ( Rachel Weisz, clearly having a lot of fun with her character). She is very naive and sweet and Oz takes advantage of her, making poor girl fall in love with him. Theodora tells him about a prophecy about a great wizard from Kansas who will defeat the bad witch and bring peace to Oz. There Oz meets Theodora ( Mila Kunis, looking so beautiful you almost wonder if she herself isn't a miracle of CGI).

He screams he doesn't want to die as balloon swirls around and after a while, the movie ratio changes, the black and white becomes full of color and along with Oscar - we enter the magical land of Oz. Oz says goodbye and tells her she should agree because he plans on achieving something amazing with his life.Īs Oz gets in trouble and is chased by the boyfriend of one of the women he seduced, he gets in the balloon and oh, oh - the twister is approaching.
We meet a girl ( Michelle Williams), apparently an old flame of his - she tells him a man named Gale (wink wink) asked her to marry him. Oz is a clever con man and illusionist but he isn't as he himself puts it "a great man". Then we see him go on stage and being booed as little girl asks him to make her walk again and he refuses because he doesn't know how. The film opens in black and white in Kansas, where Oscar ( James Franco), whose stage name is Oz, is seducing yet another assistant of his with the cute made up story. While parts of it were pretty bad, that identity and the effort itself deserve my praise. There are plenty of clever references and the film, even if it has many problems, has its own identity. What is enchanting here and what was so absent from Alice in Wonderland is the respect the creator has for the original work.
Luckily for us, the movie goers, Sam Raimi, the man behind the curtain of Oz: The Great and Powerful, is not quite as cynical. With Tim Burton taking his sweet time on Alice in Wonderland 2, what else to do than look for another adventure that will hopefully bring tons of money? And those poor things, even when they succeed in unleashing half assed movie that will bring them money just can't get the people to do sequel soon enough. Since Johnny Depp is slowly becoming more annoying than charming and their last attempt to launch new trilogy - in a dreaded title John Carter - misfired like the smelly poop in clogged toilet, they are, poor things, time and time again challenged to come up with something "new" that will prove to be profitable. (spoilers about the Wicked Witch of the West and the very ending)ĭisney doesn't give up.
