Review of The Wiz (1978) by Layla W — 31 Jul 2009
I understood as I was watching this why someone would think this was a great idea but the delivery of it was absolutely horrible. There were WAY too many songs, with almost none of them being catchy or rememberable.
Because they had so many songs, the movie dragged on and on with a plot that, while we all know it, seemed almost forgotten at times. I was impressed with the large dance numbers though. Other than that, I can now say I watched Michael Jackson as a scarecrow and be done with it.
