The part 2 of the first Wicked movie, Wicked: For Good applies itself as a basic continuation and ending of the saga. To give it some slack, most of what makes Wicked so fun is in the first part, with songs like Popular, Defying Gravity and all the Highschool drama they have. However the 2nd half is a lot more serious and darker with Elphaba being transformed into her Wicked Witch persona and all the other characters to their Wizard of Oz counterparts. Its not that the serious tone is necessarily bad it's just bland, along with forgettable songs. I did still continue to like Jeff Goldblum's Wizard of Oz along with Ariana Grande as Glinda but Elphaba somehow got even more annoying this half. I personally think its because since she's being portrayed as chopped Cynthia Erivio instead of someone hot it makes me realize how annoying her character is. Overall a lot of what makes the movie boring is that the first half is just a lot better, but it does wrap up the story well. Though changing the ending of the movie from what the play had is stupid.
