Oz the great and powerful review giveaway mom blogger

The girls were so happy to one day come home from school and see that a copy of Oz The Great and Powerful Blu-ray Combo Pack, had come in the mail. We didn’t see this film in theatres as I wasn’t entirely certain it would be appropriate for my littles, so I decided to wait for reviews from others first. This is despite constant {and I mean, constant} begging from the girls to go and see it.

I had talked with friends, and many did say that it had scary parts that make their children uncomfortable. Yet, the film is rated PG. After discussion and thought, we decided to let the girls watch the film, as they are not ones to scare easily.

Oz-the-Great-and-Powerful-Weisz-Kunis-650x487

After the film was over, I would say that the girls were fine with the ‘bad witch’ yet it was the witch crawling on the floor at the end of the film that freaked them out some. OK, I admit to looking at hubby during this part with a !!!! look, wasn’t expecting anything that freaky! Yet, the girls hid their eyes and there wasn’t a mention or anything since then, they didn’t give it a second thought actually. {phew}

Oz-the-Great-and-Powerful-Glinda-650x380

Overall, just beautiful cinema-graphics, such vivid color! I love the initial scenes in the story and how the color all of a sudden ‘pops’, you’ll just have to see for yourself.

Film Synopsis: When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot. Fame and fortune are his for the taking. That is until he meets three witches: Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity and even a bit of wizardry, Oscar transforms himself not only into a great wizard but into a better man as well.

The Blu-ray Combo Pack has some really great bonus features:

  • Bloopers
  • My Journey in Oz by James Franco – A personal story produced and directed by James Franco
  • Mr. Elfman’s Musical Concoctions – An interview with composer Danny Elfman unveils his inspiration in scoring “Oz The Great And Powerful.”
  • China Girl and the Suspension of Disbelief – This feature uncloaks the several forms of movie magic employed to bring China Girl to life, from the initial artwork and character design, to the on-set puppeteering during filmmaking, and finally, through each stage of the visual-effects process; and includes an interview with Joey King, the voice of China Girl.
  • Before Your Very Eyes: From Kansas to Oz – Production designer Robert Stromberg takes viewers through the set design of the Land of Oz, from sketching his original ideas on a napkin, through to the final set pieces and the accompanying visual effects.
  • Mila’s Metamorphosis – Lead makeup artist Howard Berger expands on one of the oldest, most tried-and-true forms of movie magic: makeup design and effects.
  • Walt Disney and the Road to Oz – It is well known that Walt Disney had a fascination with the Land ofOz since he was a child. See how that fascination grew into inspiration as he began planning for his own adaptation of the stories in the classic Baum books.

OZ The Great and Powerful is in stores now, only for a limited time. Another Disney great to add to the collection before it goes into the vault! Also don’t forget to check out my post on Oz The Great and Powerful Activity Games, all printable for convenience!

    I have always been fascinted by the magic of OZ and Dorothy’s journey into this spectacular land, and oh I love the gentle, sensitive, weepy lion and the kind hearted TinMan. Growing up and watching this story made me believe in magic, imagination and to never give up when faced with challenges. I haven’t seen the most recent OZ because we’ve been swamped with home renos, but I would love the chance to win a copy, thank you for that chance Twitter fan@plumerea

    I would be interesting to see this movie as somewhat of a remake. I also love anything with James Franco in it!
