Fantastic tale about a Kansas farm girl who's spirited off to the wondrous land of Oz. The film still tingles with freshness and beauty. Garland is forever memorable as Dorothy Gale, the young girl and the supporting performances of Bolger, Lahr,Haley, Hamilton and Morgan are all stand out and will remain national treasures. The superb songs of E.Y. Harburg and Harold Arlen are still beautifully blended with the lovely photography, cinematography and art direction. Unforgettable!!!

The first ever movie with color is still great 83 years later, the way it switches colors from it just being brown in the beginning to eventually being colored by the time they get to the land of oz, I thought was super clever, the acting is top tier, the setting is top tier, but the theories of glinda being the villians of the movie is what brings it down because there is so much evidence to back it up, the movie is funny when it tries to be funny, the movie isn't something you will forget immediately, neither is it a perfect movie, but it is one that will be loved and remembered for years to come.

A bit boring for a modern viewer, but charming in its own way. Stupid in the classic old Hollywood way - you know, the way that makes you chuckle a bit condescendingly but also smile at the naiveté with genuine kindness.

Technically interesting with all the early special effects!
