Review of Return to Oz (1985) by Ollie W — 04 Aug 2015
Ridiculously underrated. Possibly one of the best films of all time. It is so very packed with little things, that no wonder critics snubbed it. Everything went over their shallow heads.
But yes, too childish for adults, too scary for kids... in 1985. Perfect for everyone now.
This is truer to the stories, so really the original, the 1939 version, falls flat on its face compared.
Wonderful. If you don't get it, do some research. Pages among pages of information you've likely missed while watching this.
