Love this movie!! I must say that I really enjoyed it!!I wasn't sure if this movie would appeal to me being that I am truly a horror fan and do not typically watch movies that would be considered a "kids movie" but I have to say after watching it, I was very impressed in many ways. I found the storyline to be very interesting and fun!!!! The cast was amazing and they did a tremendous job. The graphics and effects were very well done even as a small budget film and deserve recognition. This movie is fun and entertaining for ALL age groups. It is a wonderful family movie that can be enjoyed over and over. All the actors did an amazing job at drawing you in and making you believe they were truly those characters. Some of the actors in this movie you may not recognize but can truly put some "big name" actors to shame. I consider this one to be one of the top family movies and will be enjoyed by all that watch it.

OK the plot line had excellent potential and started out very strong despite the horrible excuse for an actress who played dorthy ...I mean really I wanted the witch to win so she would just die. But really after part one I was really into the story line and wanted to see part two....I should have stopped at part one because the acting goes down hill and the effects lets face it my 12 year old sister does better with her YouTube videos on an allowance budget. You got to love the part when scarecrow was on fire and she looks like she is just bating him to death...no where near the flames I may add . ..the ending looked a little better but bad acting shitty effects and dialog that made me want to shoot my self in the face made sure that hope was squashed ...I had high hopes for this too there was a lot of really good actors in it to bad the lead actress never took any acting classes

I can honestly say I watched this with an open mind both parts 1 & 2.It was horrifically acted save for Christopher Llyod as the wizard.The characters fail to make you feel anything for them, the wicked witch of the easts death was rubbish (she sees the house about to drop on her & looks up & says "Oh dear" in a certificate 12 DVD she could have said "oh $**t!").Toto must be immortal as he was a young dog at the start & continues to look young the entire movie.The guy playing the scarecrow should have been left to burn, all he did was produce crocodile tears when he was threatened.3 odd hours of my life I'll never get back.If you want to see a good version of OZ I suggest you see WICKED at Londons Apollo Victoria theatre.Not worth wasting £10 on the DVD. Should have just set lite to the tenner.If you have not watched this movie & are a fan of OZ for the love of God avoid it.

Modern twist to a classic tale. Very cute.Read all the books and love how they incorporated the head switching. Think that the other reviews were pretty harsh.THis is a very cute twist... can't wait to watch part 2.My daughter is a teen and she is enjoying it two... apparently I have to write ten line to be able to submit this review. This is my first review written but I'm very disappointed in all the critics.It's not a Hollywood blockbuster, but if you like to story then this is a fun twist.I also like how they are incorporating the characters in a simple manner that if you've read the books to your kids they'll understand who they are and be looking to identify the next one. Mind you Return to Oz is kind of a creepy book from what I remember not your average fairy tale.
