FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://talkingfilms.net/wicked-for-good-review-cynthia-erivo-and-ariana-grande-butera-cement-their-place-in-ozs-unbreakable-heart/ "Wicked: For Good may not reach the levels of the first film, but it remains a wonderful work of technical excellence and profound emotion ... al impact. The audiovisual spectacle is complemented by the urgency of its social commentary on political propaganda and, most crucially, by the unbreakable heart of its friendship story. Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande-Butera cement themselves as the essential figures of this adaptation, elevating the narrative with performances that are, by themselves, the biggest reason for enjoying the movie. It's a triumphant, devastating, and cathartic conclusion, proving that true goodness doesn't reside in public reputation, but in the sacrifices made in the name of justice and unconditional love."
