Classic family fantasy flick!

"There's no place like home. There's no place like home. There's no place like home."

It is far too inadequate and clichéd to award The Wizard of Oz the title of "classic". This is a film that essentially everyone holds in high regard. This is more than just a classic children's fantasy movie: this is a brilliant, groundbreaking family movie that encloses various poignant, relevant... read more

Timeless Classic

One of the greatest musicals this world will ever see. The beginning is a bit dry and slow but once the twister arrives, it's non stop 100% entertainment all the way to the end. Most of the songs are cute and catchy, but a few are letdowns, mostly the ones from the Lion.

As a kid, I loved the Munchkins and the Scarecrow i thought was hilarious throughout, but I also got nightmares ... read more

When I first saw this film on DVD, I wasn't that keen on it for some reason. I don't know why this is but when I saw it for the second time, I realised what an adventurous, beautiful, funny, imaginitive and tense family film this really is. I think The Wizard Of Oz is the oldest children's live-action film and it blew me away with how well it was filmed because the visual effects stunned me. No, t... read more

"FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★ NOTES: A direct rip from an original negative, could have been the 1998 re-release. The colours and clarity are astonishing as they ought to be, but a lot of frames and snippets have been lost in time. Only one frame has been lost from ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’, but “I’ll get you, my pretty, and your little…” has burned off. The odd-numbered reels are a natural bright tint while the even-numbered reels bear a golden tint that really brings out the ye"

My childhood favourite!

“I am 16, and I still love this movie. I grew up watching this, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Meet Me in Saint Louis, and I never tire of them. Judy Garland is wonderful as Dorothy, bringing a sense of vulnerability and sadness to the role, making Over The Rainbow more poignant than it already was. Ray Bolger, Jack Haley and Bert Lahr are really entertaining as her three friends. Billie Burke as Glinda, and the Munchkins were great fun too. The wicked witch of the west scared the life out of me here and still does, and even Frank Morgan does 5 roles to great comical effect. The songs are just fabulous, and so is the cinematography and the stunning scenery. True, the film isn't completely faithful to the book, but why does it have to be? If I had one minor drawback, it would be the singing voi” read more
