Oz the Great and Powerful would probably knock 'em dead as the basis for an attraction at Disney World. Director Sam Raimi's reinterpretation of The Wizard of Oz universe is loud and eye-poppingly colorful, and, thanks to 3-D, there's enough stuff hurtling at you to make you feel like you've stepped into a meteor shower.
