Wicked - Pelo Bem

The songs may not be as catchy this time around, but “Wicked: For Good” really sings where it counts: with the emotional ache of the fractured friendship at the story’s core.

Oz saga conclusion will satisfy its extensive army of devotees.

Its aspirations start and stop at being fun, funny, touching, accessible, and musically engaging, and it achieves all of those things with ease.

The story is touching, it’s beautifully made, and it provides a fulfilling conclusion to this Ozian epic.

Director Jon M Chu pulls off quite a trick with this manageably proportioned second half to the epic musical prequel-myth inspired by The Wizard of Oz – and based, of course, on the hit stage show.

I stopped being a film critic and immediately regressed to the musical theater obsessed high schooler who sang "For Good," through tears with her best friend at our high school graduation ceremony.
