Wicked: For Good
This sweeping musical conclusion to the 2024 Wicked adaption is a richer, darker story than the first film, with higher emotional stakes, more intense action, and a notably more mature romantic scene. It's a genuinely wonderful movie for older kids and tweens, but it carries more weight than the first part did.
A comfortable fit for ages 11 and up; kids aged 9–10 may enjoy it with a grown-up beside them to talk through the heavier moments.
If you’d rather skip
Flying monkeys pursue Elphaba in a sinister, frightening chase sequence that sets the film's darker, higher-stakes tone.
A character's heart begins to shrink; he screams in agony as his body transforms into metal while Elphaba pleads for it to stop. The resulting Tin Man appearance is jarring. Could upset sensitive viewers of any age.
A character is effectively stripped of his heart and emotional capacity in a traumatic sequence, framed as a tragedy for everyone involved.
