The Wizard\u2019s (Jeff Goldblum) ambitious yellow brick road project is in the works, forcibly executed by scores of Ozian animals who have now lost their ability to speak. Elphaba \u2014 now hailed the Wicked Witch of the West \u2014 swoops in to their rescue, setting the animals free and once more eluding Ozians on their witchhunt. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Others are good but she\u2019s the good\u2026liest?<\/strong> A lot can change in a year, and certainly has. Glinda has become the city\u2019s poster child for all things good \u2014 Elphaba\u2019s antithesis \u2014 Fiyero (Jonathan Bailey) is now the captain of a special force tasked with capturing the witch, and Nessarose (Marissa Bode), Elphaba\u2019s sister, has become the governor after her father\u2019s death and her sister\u2019s disappearance. Yet, not all is as it seems. Deep down, our cast of characters know the truth about what happened with the Wizard, yet everyone has a part to dutifully play. As Elphaba\u2019s attempts to restore justice fail, she comes to the realization that indeed no good deed goes unpunished. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The film hit the ground running, having already established all backstories, plots, and <\/strong><strong>characters.<\/strong> Elphaba is set on her mission to expose the Wizard and save Oz, faced with the lies of both the Wizard and Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh). The sequel shows how truth can be twisted, how an entire people could be deceived, and what it means to sit idle as injustice takes root.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Dorothy enters stage right.<\/strong> The second act sees the iconic Wizard of Oz protagonist finally make an appearance. The question of who was to play her \u2014 stepping in Judy Garland\u2019s metaphorical ruby red slippers \u2014 was one on everyone\u2019s lips. The answer left audiences speechless, but not for the reasons you\u2019d expect.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>For Good doubles down on everything that made Wicked wickedly good.<\/strong> The cinematography and visual effects initially retain the hallmark color palette of the first film, yet soon things takes a dark turn \u2014 both literally and figuratively. As the movie progresses, colors begin to fade, and darkness takes hold. This transition, complemented by the darkness in the second act soundtrack\u2019s lyrics, adds depth to the sequel. Certain scenes, too, unfold in a way reminiscent of body-horror thrillers \u2014 but that\u2019s all we\u2019ll divulge for now. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Let\u2019s <\/strong><strong>talk music<\/strong><strong>: <\/strong>The <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/3JUrJP460nFIqwjxM19slT?si=1vEXt2LOR3iAUzehYU-pIg\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">original Wicked soundtrack<\/a> undeniably reigns supreme, yet For Good\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/6pamCzTowX31m57z8dC1Sk?si=TbIH-bQTQyqFLkcDW5lIMA\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">sonic undertakings<\/a> definitely put up a fight.

While we understand the creative choice to focus efforts and attention on Elphaba and Glinda\u2019s friendship, we would have appreciated more time dedicated to the journey of the Kansas-hailing 12-year-old. This might be an unpopular opinion, but Wicked could have benefited from being a trilogy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>That said, Wicked: For Good was a <\/strong><strong>wonderful<\/strong><strong> success.<\/strong> It\u2019s often noted that the second act of the original Broadway production doesn\u2019t quite match the momentum of the first, but Wicked: For Good deftly navigates this challenge to deliver a finale that feels just as propulsive as its predecessor. The ending was more than satisfactory, with everyone getting just what they deserve \u2014 the good and the bad. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>WHERE TO WATCH IT-<\/strong> You can catch Wicked: For Good at <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/egy.voxcinemas.com\/movies\/wicked-for-good\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Vox Cinemas<\/a> at Mall of Egypt, Alexandria, and City Center Almaza.
