In spite of some clunky dialogue and oddly wooden performances (especially by Deschanel, who doesn't quite seem to buy the world she's in), "Tin Man" is a memorable look at Oz some hundreds of years after Dorothy Gale. It looks good (dated CGI elements aside), has some strong castmembers (McDonough in particular is good enough to really elevate the material), and the story is quite good on paper, even as its execution is sometimes a bit uneven. With a lot of tighter editing and some fixes to the dialogue, this could have been quite brilliant, but even as it is, it's well worth a gander if a pseudo-dark but still family-friendly adventure Oz sequel sounds like your thing.
