Wicked for Good is a solid sequel that continues the story from last year’s Wicked: Part One. To me there were surprises, intense personal drama, and character development.
Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo are two performers who were just superb. There were lots of points in the movie where their vocals made you feel everything.
Much of what I experienced was pain and sadness in all points of the movie. Glinda was struggling in how she was the poster child of Oz. And eventually the wicked side of Elphaba had to come out because it was her only choice. The story is filled with messages about how Oz was shady and not a good person.
Additionally, Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Yeoh together make an evil team. I thought (People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive, Jonathan Bailey, was terrific too. Furthermore, I think you will be very pleased in how they wrapped things up. Watch the first movie, then see the second, it’s worth it.
