Wicked For Good: My Full Review of Wicked: Part Two

In this week’s episode of The Overshare Pamphlet, I’m finally back after a short break, and I couldn’t wait to sit down and talk about one of the year’s biggest releases: Wicked: Part Two — Wicked For Good.

This film picks up right where Part One left off, adapting the second half of the original stage musical—and it’s definitely the darker, sadder, and more emotionally complicated half. I get into why this chapter hits harder, how Glinda and Elphaba’s stories evolve, and the way the movie leans into themes like truth, propaganda, revolution, power, and moral ambiguity.

I also break down how the tone, pacing, and structure differ from Part One, whether splitting the story really paid off, and yes… I even compare it to the Avengers two-part structure because honestly, it fits. And of course, I talk about the performances—Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Jonathan Bailey, and the rest of the cast—plus the box office expectations and how loyal the film stays to the stage version.

I wrap things up with Songs of the Week, including a few nostalgic favorites for Thanksgiving and some new picks.

If you’ve already seen Wicked: Part Two—or you’re planning to—this episode is the perfect companion. Tune in, let me know what you think, and don’t forget to check out the Spotify playlist!
