Where to Watch El mago
- Richard14 de mayo de 2026I remember seeing The Wiz on TV years ago and what grabbed me immediately was the music. The story and visuals are fun in their own quirky, late 70s way, but it’s the soundtrack that really makes this one unforgettable. Those songs still hit with the same energy and soul and hearing them again brings back that whole era in an instant. As a film, it’s uneven, some scenes are clunky, some effects haven’t aged well and the pacing wanders, but none of that matters once the music kicks in. The performances, the arrangements, the whole vibe… it’s pure nostalgia wrapped in a funky, theatrical time capsule. It’s not perfect, but it has heart, style and a soundtrack that still shines. Rewatching it now is like stepping back into a very specific moment in time and the music is absolutely the reason it still works.
- TomVader20 de diciembre de 2025I remember this being on TV when I was young, and I was very excited to see it because Micheal Jackson was in it. Then I fell asleep watching it. Well, I'm much older now, but I still fell asleep watching it. This movie had a lot of promise, but overdoes the visuals and songs. It wouldn't be a bad thing if the songs were catchy enough, but most of them don't measure up. It also seems like they break into a 12 minute musical number every single time any scene changes. The result is that the story drags. While it's fun to see this story reimagined, I think they tried too hard for a Broadway musical feel, which doesn't work for me.
