The photography and special effects were great. Some of the actors were good. James Franco was OK as Oz, but not great. On a scale of 1 to 4, I would give it 2.75 stars.
2.75-- That would be my rating too. James Franco is a little too serious an actor to pull off the con man kind of characterization needed. He was way too serious for the 2012 Oscars as well.
