    it has taken me months to write this review but here we go. 
    - the musical theatre child in me cried the second who mourns the wicked began. wicked was the first musical i ever saw on broadway, and it became my whole life. popular was MY SONGGG. 
    - i do believe this was as perfect of an adaptation that we could have received. i think it utilized the possibility of film as a medium well while keeping the heart…

    I actually thoroughly enjoyed this. Timothee  Chalamet’s performance was undeniable. He put in the work and it shows. I honestly appreciate that this just felt like a good, well rounded film that would have dominated in like 2018. Some moments dragged on a bit, but that’s to be expected. Monica Barbaro really solidified herself as a new force in the industry with this one. I left just wanting a bit more from this film. Some more grit or something

    i mean what a watch. the choreography? bodied. the soundtrack? devoured. i would cast a spell on ben too no shame. dove cameron singing “only” is literally a masterpiece. she is musically theatre trained and you can tell. those pipes were piping. the CGI needs a little help and with that disney budget i expected something more but you win some you lose some. rotten to the core will forever be my hype song and i stand by that.

    now, anne.

    you know what. ms hathaway has an oscar and the ability to put herself in a movie with some guy twenty years younger. more power to her. 

    still trying to wrap my head around the fact that many accomplished professionals read this script and thought to themselves… “id watch this.”

    i will say we said we would only watch half. it’s 2 am and the credits are rolling
