This movie had the potential to be fantastic, but the leading man and protagonist was weak. Perhaps if Robert Downey Jr. had been able to fill the role the movie would have had more gravitas and stability, but Franco was just disappointing and goofy. Michelle Williams, Rachel Weisz, and Mila Kunis were exceedingly more powerful in their performances and character interpretations. The china doll and flying monkey were the only reprieves to scenes with Franco. The special effects were phenomenal and the audio was beautiful. Overall I had a hard time sitting through it, but the supporting cast was great. I still think Franco is a great actor-he just wasn't a good fit for Oz.
Pros supporting cast, visually stunning
Cons slow, script was poor
No, I do not recommend this movie.
