Wicked (2024) Movie Review

My girlfriend Mariah went to see the movie Wicked and loved it.  She really wanted me to go see it so I did.

I was not sure I would like it, but as it turned out, I loved it.

This movie mainly focuses on the characters Elphaba Thropp (played by Cynthia Erivo), later known as the Wicked Witch of the West, and Galinda Upland (played by Ariana Grande-Butera), later known as Glinda The Good.  It focuses on their relationship, which is not good at first, but they both later become friends. 

If you are a fan of The Wizard Of Oz or a fan of this story, then I think you will enjoy it.

Along with Erivo and Grande, Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh plays Madame Morrible, Jeff Goldblum plays The Wizard of Oz.  That’s just some of the great cast.

And the songs are phenomenal too and it’s a beautiful looking movie.

This movie is also part 1 of a 2 part story.  I know some people may not like this aspect of it, but I’m ok with it.  It’s more to look forward to.

Like I said, if you are a fan of The Wizard Of Oz or of musicals, I cannot imagine you not enjoying this movie.

I’m not an expert on this story and I loved it.

Go see it!!
