A slick, glossy remake of Army Of Darkness with all its beats stolen from The Wizard Of Oz.
Charlotte's favourite character was the talking, flying monkey because 1) it was a monkey, she likes monkeys and 2) she wants to be able to fly like the monkey. I thought the monkey looked fucking weird.
Did it look anything like this?
ReplyDeleteScumbag of Oz! Enjoyed it quite a bit, and Franco was a good choice. The monkey was creepy - like one of those clappy clappy toys, which we all know are evil.
ReplyDeleteJames Franco ambles around a beautifully rendered cartoon fantasy world searching for some sort of narrative thrust and other interesting characters. When it eventually comes everything improves greatly, but it takes far too long. Can't disagree with the overlong comments, but felt it was reverse overlong.
ReplyDeleteThe monkey was also my favourite character.
