‘For Good’ Divides Audiences With Unexpected Rotten Tomatoesโฃ Score
The โmusical “Wicked” and its โsignature song, “For Good,” are experiencing โa surge in online discussion-and a surprisingly polarized reaction-as evidenced by the film โadaptation’s audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. While critics largely praised the movie, the audience score โcurrently sits at aโ notably low 53% asโ of november 29, 2023, sparking debate among fansโ of the stage production and newcomers alike.
This discrepancy highlights the challenges ofโ adaptingโ beloved stage musicals for theโฃ screen and the subjective nature of artistic interpretation. โข”Wicked,” a prequel toโข “The Wizard of oz,” has captivated audiences for nearly two decades with its story โขof Glinda and โElphaba, theโข Wicked Witch of the West, and their complex friendship. The film, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, aims to bringโ that โขmagic to a wider audience, but the audience response suggests a disconnect between โฃexpectations and execution.
Paul Tassi, a contributor toโฃ Forbes coveringโ gaming and entertainment, hasโข been actively โคdiscussing โthe film and its reception on his YouTube channel and Instagram.Heโฃ encourages readers to checkโ outโ his work at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ and https://www.instagram.com/paul.tassi/?hl=en.
