FILMRECENSION. Historien avslutas lika starkt som den började förra året.

”Wicked: For Good” är en cyklon av sentimentala BFF-scener, flygande CGI-apor och en så barnvänlig kärlekshistoria att en kyss tycks lika förbjuden som den hårdaste BDSM-session. Humorn får stå åt sidan för en spretig lektion om propaganda och inget av musikalnumren lever upp till första aktens ”Defying Gravity”.
SvDFilm shared
Nya ”Wicked” är både dystrare och segare än första filmen. För att till fullo uppskatta detta bör handlingen enbart betraktas som distraktion mellan musikalnumren.

Ett år efter den prisade och hajpade musikalen ”Wicked” kommer den andra och avslutande delen av sagan. Temat rasism och totalitarism fördjupas, kostymerna är konstverk och skönsången briljant. En uppföljare som lägger i en extra växel, skriver en imponerad Wanda Bendjelloul.

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.

But the superstar among equals is Cynthia Erivo, bringing her black-belt screen presence to the role of Elphaba, and revealing a new vulnerability and maturity.

Variety
The film fixes a common complaint of the show, giving the pair more scenes (and songs) together in this final stretch, which now feels like a robust tale unto itself.

The Independent
The second part of the film, based on the hit Broadway prequel to The Wizard of Oz, is set to be released in a year’s time and is eight times more relevant because of truth and consequences in today's society.

Whatever your feelings about it, this is clearly a spectacle that's been made with love, and that's all for the better.

HuffPost
The film is nothing less than spectacular in scope and theme. It’s obvious that it was intentionally crafted to continue telling the story while simultaneously celebrating both the legacy of the Stephen Schwartz-composed musical and the impact it has had on fans.

Boston.com
Despite two brilliant lead performances from Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, “Wicked: For Good” cannot transcend Universal’s original sin of prioritizing profit over storytelling.

Rotten Tomatoes
Wicked might be one of the most beautiful and ambitious movie musicals we’ve seen in years, one that rivals some of the best of the Old Hollywood era.
