Alright, gents, let's talk "Wicked" – the movie version, that is. As a guy who's seen the stage show, once I went in with a healthy dose of skepticism, but came out genuinely impressed. They've taken a beloved classic and given it a visually stunning, emotionally resonant cinematic makeover.First off, the world of Oz is absolutely breathtaking. They've translated the stage magic into a sprawling, vibrant spectacle. It’s like stepping into a living painting, every scene bursting with color and detail. It’s a feast for the eyes, even for those of us who usually prefer our entertainment with a bit more… explosions.The story, as always, is a masterclass in nuanced storytelling. It's not just about good versus evil; it's about friendship, acceptance, and the power of perspective. They’ve captured the heart of the show perfectly, and even added some new layers that really enhance the experience.The performances are top-notch. They’ve brought these iconic characters to life with such depth and authenticity. The chemistry between Elphaba and Glinda is electric, and their vocal performances are simply stunning. They deliver those iconic songs with power and emotion, making you feel every note.Look, I get it. Musicals aren’t everyone’s cup of tea. But "Wicked" transcends genres. It’s a story that resonates with everyone, regardless of their musical preferences. It’s about being true to yourself, even when the world tells you that you're too different. And that's a message that everyone can get behind.They've done justice to the source material, and they’ve created a film that’s both entertaining and thought-provoking. It's a movie that you can enjoy with your friends, your family, or even by yourself. It’s a feel-good experience that leaves you with a smile on your face and a song in your heart. Trust me, even if you’re a die-hard action fan, you’ll find something to love in "Wicked." It’s a magical journey that’s definitely worth taking.

There were a lot of reviews about disc and auditory problems that made me weary to purchase but as a life long fan of the broadway plus, it wasn’t something I could pass up. I’m happy to report it worked perfectly and there were zero issues with my discs.

whether you have or haven't read the book or seen the play, this movie is a must-see! beautifully shot, the soundtrack is amazing, and the actors were cast well. as long as you love musicals and the story, guaranteed you'll love this movie

If you lived this movie as I did, you might want to watch it again at home. Got this DVD cause I wanted to see some scenes again. Some people are okay about streaming but I prefer DVDs because you can share it like a good book with your friends & family. If you haven't seen this movie...please do and you'll have a great movie night! Don't forget the popcorn & drinks!!!

I went into Wicked having never read the book or seen the Broadway play, and I came out impressed. The set design was absolutely magical—whimsical, rich, and everything you’d imagine from the world of Oz. Visually, it delivers big time.Now, if you’re looking for an iconic tune like “If I Only Had a Brain” or “Ease On Down the Road” from The Wiz, you might be a little let down. The music is strong, but none of the songs really stuck in my head after the credits rolled. Still, the acting more than made up for it—solid performances across the board.I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn’t “woke” like I half-expected it might be. The “because I’m green” moment” made me rolled my eyes watching the commercial trailer but the line was utter is actually empowering—not like a victim. The witch, Elphaba, is a standout. She’s super likable and confident, and I found myself rooting for her the whole way through.As the movie goes on, the tone gets deeper than I anticipated. There are clear themes of false narratives, gaslighting, political manipulation—even a hint of “fake news.” It adds depth without being too heavy-handed.A few nitpicks: I wish the Munchkins were actually short like in the original Wizard of Oz. That part felt off to me. And I know it’s true to the book, but it was strange at first seeing the witch born green instead of transforming, like in the Great Powerful OZ movie. I get it, : different stories it’s in the book, Then again, fans of Halloween overlook Jamie’s disappearing timelines and Laurie Strode’s multiple versions, so I guess it’s just part of fantasy film continuity.Overall, Wicked is a fun, emotional ride with just enough sadness to tug your heart a bit—and if you’ve seen the trailer for Part 2, it looks like things tie right into Dorothy’s arrival, which is super exciting.A must-see for any Oz fan. I genuinely enjoyed it! Take a walk down the yellow brink road!
