After the Wizard 2011


After the Wizard


     A twelve-year old girl is an orphan in Kingman, Kansas.  She keeps telling everyone that her name is not Elizabeth but it’s Dorothy Gale and she’s been to see the Wizard of Oz.  Every day she hopes she will see her dog Toto and her friends who made the journey with her to Oz.  She doesn’t know that Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman are searching for her right now.  The Cowardly Lion felt he needed to stay behind in Oz.  They believe Dorothy is the only one who can save Oz from a threat sweeping their land.
    This a very nice movie for families and kids despite the discouraging reviews.  It isn’t and couldn’t be rocket science?  3 ½* (I liked this movie) 

80 min, Family & Kids directed by Hugh Gross with Jordan Van Vranken, Orien Richman, Jermel Nakia, Helen Richman, Loren Lester, Sue Glosa.

Note:  Imdb 3.1 out of 10, 39% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
Special Note:  Nearly everyone is talking about violence in films and video games because of the continuing violence in our country.  Is there support for a movie without any of this?  Not judging by the above reviews!
