The movie is overall a good movie that tells the story before Dorothy's arrival in oz. Wicked was a book first and the other three books in the wicked collection are just as good.
The issues with this movie may be minor but they bothered me enough to leave a review.
First, the munchkins are regular sized and it was funny that Glinda was shorter than most of them. If they make tom cruise look tall they could have done the same for arianna.
Second, nessa rose, elphabas little sister, later known as the wicked witch of the east is in a wheelchair. This doesn't make sense later when the house falls on her because there is no chair in the original movie. In the book, nessa rose doesn't have arms and struggles to do everything herself. Later, when the house kills her it makes sense why u only see her legs.
Third, the animal cruelty is downplayed in the movie. In the book, the professor is murdered not fired which is why Elphaba gets so angry when she finds out about the wizards involvement. The movie did ok to portray elphba as an animal lover so points for that.
There is a part two to this movie that leads up to Elphabas murder by Dorothy and I hope it is a good movie but shorter than this one.
