Converting a chick flick into an action-adventure

usmc80

I hated "The Wizard of Oz" because it was such a chick-flick as far as I could tell. The only cool thing about it was the flying monkeys. My sister loved that stupid movie when I was growing up and she had to watch it every time it came on.

I decided to take a chance on "Tinman" last night simply because it was on one of my favorite channels, Sci-Fi. So far I've actually enjoyed it...and the flying monkeys are still cool. Zooey's not bad either, sort of the girl-next-door type you develop a crush on. Neal McDonough's acting is always good too, the same believability he put into his character on "Band of Brothers" a few years ago.

I'd say most of the people who don't like "Tinman" are probably "Wizard" purists or just not big fans of Sci-fi fantasy.

score 7/10
