Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande in "Wicked."
Universal Pictures
- "Wicked," directed by Jon M. Chu, is a film adaptation of the iconic stage musical — well, just act one.
- Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande's individual performances and chemistry carry the film.
- Though it can get bogged down in itself, for the most part, "Wicked" earns its lengthy runtime.
"Wicked" is expansive, indulgent, and a few minutes too long. It's also extraordinarily, immersively good.
Directed by Jon M.
