Follow the Road to “Emerald City” on IFLIX

EMERALD CITY, THE EPIC HIT DRAMA FROM ACCLAIMED DIRECTOR TARSEM SINGH, NOW AVAILABLE ONLY ON IFLIX

Well growing up with the tales of Dorothy and her adventures on the yellow brick road giving it a twist was definitely interesting, The first episode shows that Dorothy is a medical practitioner like I am, as she enters the world of OZ/Emerald City-  she calls herself a healer. Meeting mystical characters along the way and conqueing witches with glamourous wardrobe. Not forgetting, her 3 main – Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion, which we can’t wait on how their characters tackles in the series. Don’t forget her dog side kick, Toto. So far I’m hooked with the first episode, it may be kinda dark compared to the story that we have been used to growing up but sometimes change is good & to mix things a little. There might be something brewing between Dorothy and Lucas (who is Lucas?, he is a familiar character which would make it a shocker and twist for the series) It is for you to watch!

When the trailer was released on IFLIX’S FB Page, I wanted to start watching it but since I have a hunch that It will have a special preview for the bloggers, which it did!  Last Feb 8, 2017, so I waited for it and I wasn’t disspointed till the end. At first it was kinda bland and dark for a story you lived your entire childhood but when she got to the world of OZ and Emerald city that’s when it got interesting. The location, graphics and modern/minimalist set up plus points.
