What does this mean for the wicked
High expectations continue to grow
Luft’s review is consistent with the original Evil star Kristin Chenoweth’s complementary review, plus early positive reactions from critics. For Luft, the first Evil film is not only a worthy adaptation of the Broadway musical, but is a valuable addition to the family of Wizard of Oz stories that are intertwined with his mother’s legacy. This continues to raise expectations for Evil just a few days before the release of the long-awaited film in cinemas.
The star-studded Evil The film’s cast received much of the focus in marketing and during the film’s release, but Luft’s review teases that the actors are just one of the adaptation’s many strengths. Chu’s direction, production design, and fantastical scope of the musical are equally impressive. That is a good omen for Evil becoming a critical and public success while also performing well at the box office when released alongside Gladiator II.
Our Take on Lorna Luft’s Vicious Review
The Wicked movie is set to be truly special
Another positive Evil the revision is a promising sign, and it’s particularly meaningful coming from someone whose family is deeply connected to the original Wizard of Oz film. Although Luft doesn’t mention this in her review, another element that may have resonated with her is Dorothy appearing in Evil although she is never explicitly shown and is out of view in the Broadway musical. This could make the film adaptation feel even more personally connected to her mother’s legacy. Luft’s genuinely enthusiastic analysis further increases the excitement that is high for the Evil film.
