If you enjoy the musical “Wicked,” then you’ll be delighted by the new Wicked movie.

The performers deliver, it strikes the necessary emotional chords, and the production offers a visual and auditory feast that’s nothing short of lavish and extravagant.

Frank Baum’s 1900 novel “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” and the classic 1939 film adaptation. Therefore, the upcoming movie is rich with a century’s worth of literary, cinematic, and theatrical history, along with the high expectations that accompany it.
