Tin Man Part 3

WOW!! Got to watch the last part of Tin Man last night and I have to say, I love it. This is hands down, easily, the best Sci-Fi mini-series they have ever done.

WARNING SOME SPOILERS!!

The tie in with the old series and the Gray Gail and Dorothy, WOW!! Who saw that one coming. The Tin Man finding his son, only to find he had lost his heart as well.

Going through at the end and making sure everyone had their brains/courage/heart, totally great.

And then in the end, they did it very well. With everyone doing their part to defeat the evil witch who melts in the end.

There were a couple weak points, like how the hell did they make it back to the northern castle, 1, really really fast, and 2 without having to cross the ravine or 3. go through the papei(sp?) fields.

But if you leave out just a few parts, Tim Man could have stood up as a movie on the big screen if it wasn't so long. I've seen a lot worse there. Great acting, great script, very few "logical" flaws, great special affects, great tie ins with the original Wizard of Oz, while having a complete story of its own. I love how they tie in magic with technology, how they have an underlying story of the French resistance in WWII (not sure if the original had that, it may have.)

This film hits on several levels.

Just fantastic.

Until next time...
