Details: Product Description Disney's fantastical adventure Oz The Great And Powerful, from the director of the Spider-Man trilogy, follows Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics. When Diggs is hurled away to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he's hit the jackpot — until he meets three witches (Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz and Michelle Williams), who aren't convinced he's the great wizard everyone's expecting. Reluctantly drawn into epic problems facing Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it's too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity — and even some wizardry — Oscar transforms himself into the great wizard and a better man as well. --------------- Disney's fantasy adventure OZ THE MAGNIFICENT, from the director of the SPIDER-MAN trilogy, traces the journey of Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a low-profile circus magician with questionable ethics. When Diggs is whisked away to the flamboyant Land of Oz, he believes he's hit the jackpot -- until he meets three witches (Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz and Michelle Williams) who are far from convinced that he is indeed the great magician that everyone hopes for. Immersed in spite of himself in the heart of the problems that afflict Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must identify the good guys and the bad guys before it's too late. Putting his talents as a magician to good use by using illusion, ingenuity -- and even a little genius --, Oscar transforms himself into a great magician, becoming a better man at the same time. Amazon.ca For sheer visual splendor, Oz the Great and Powerful is hard to beat. Even before the hot-air balloon of carnival magician Oscar "Oz" Diggs (James Franco) gets swept up in a tornado and hurled to the Technicolor land of Oz, the sepia tones of Kansas have a lush, almost velvety texture. Once Diggs arrives in Oz, he learns of a prophecy that he might be the wizard to free the land from the grips of a tyrannical witch--and from there, the movie juggles visual delights with a story that is regrettably half-baked. Some sequences and characters are skillfully realized (a little girl made of china is perfectly developed, both visually and narratively), while others seem propped up like cardboard cutouts. (Unavoidable comparisons to The Wizard of Oz, a masterpiece of vividly drawn characters, don't help.) Franco doesn't have the theatricality one might want for a carnival huckster, but fortunately his low-key performing style helps to ground the bright spectacle in human emotions . As witches wicked and good, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz, and Michelle Williams all display charm and verve. The movie is flawed, but when Oz the Great and Powerful hits a right note, merging wonder and fear, dazzle and darkness, it's easy to forgive the weaknesses. --Bret Fetzer Special Features • Walt Disney And The Road To Oz -- Walt's Personal Fascination With Oz • Bloopers • My Journey In Oz By James Franco -- View This Personal, Intimate Portrait Produced And Directed By James Franco • Mr. Elfman's Musical Concoctions -- Composer Danny Elfman Brings His Unique Talent To The Movie's Score •China Girl And The Suspension Of Disbelief -- Discover The Movie Magic That Brings China Girl To Life •Before Your Very Eyes: From Kansas To Oz -- Explore Robert Stromberg's Extraordinary Production Design •Mila's Metamorphosis -- Witness An Amazing Transformation Through The Power Of Special Makeup Effects
