Wicked: For Good
2025-11-29
Toronto, ON

My suspicions were correct — this would have been better served as a single three hour plus epic. I get that that's not very palatable for the average moviegoer, especially because this is aiming to be family friendly and fun for all ages. But the sickos like me out there would love to see it. And because of this structure, there is a lot of bloat here. But when it does lock in, it definitely soars. Loved the "As Long As You're Mine" and "For Good" sequences, with the latter definitely clocking in as movie magic. I do commend it for getting the youngins familiar with themes of corruption early. And lastly, my complaints about the look and feel of the original still apply here.

Watched in IMAX at Scotiabank Theatre Toronto.
