Wicked (2024 film)

[Jake S]

It’s one review, from someone who clearly knows nothing about what Wicked’s message is, and will probably eat crow when the second part releases and it all pays off.

yes! blame the voters reviewers!

Reviewers / reviews are allowed to be criticized, but as I said, it’s one review. Who cares? The vast majority appear to be fully onboard, and I’ve seen many I trust state the two parts work, and this first part is brilliant.

Can’t wait to see it tomorrow !

Seeing it today (11/20/24), genuinely buzzed to see how they do this.

This is the problem with making it two 2.5 hour parts and not advertising at all the fact that this is only part one. I mean, I’m sure the reviewers know that, but those plot points pay off hard in the second act, which is now a completely separate movie instead of the second half of one show. Even if you know there’s a second part, you’re only reviewing the story up to the end of act 1 so these things just seem like throwaway filler.

the exact thing happened with the miles Morales Spider-Man movie, ends with cliffhanger, and now we won't even know when it's coming out ( it was postponed) and then you're just left hanging lol

Correct me if I’m wrong but Spider-verse 2 is kinda the perfect example
Most reviewers didn’t care it has a cliff hanger the film was amazing and was reviewed as such

Like at the time you can fault empire strikes back but years later it’s considered the best one for many of the OT Star Wars films.

But generally most reviews seem to love it, I’ve seen a review of someone who never saw the play and they still enjoyed it.

But once a reviewer isn’t firm with the songs, honestly that’s one person opinion but I love the songs so while it’s interesting to see another’s thoughts but it’s like hearing someone talk about a fast and furious film but not like cars…

But most people are going to enjoy this film, not everyone but the play is well written with many many fun lyrics and lines that play into characters future fates for those watching a second or 60th time, along with a pretty sound plot with the great music, some funny lines and from all the trailers and scenes I’ve seen looking very much like what I imagined happened during the play.

Anyway, I hope people do enjoy it and just have fun and also people make up their own mind when seeing it, really the films impact on yourself is what’s most important over what the metric is.
