Rental Family — A Dreamy Stroll Through White Lies

Wicked: For Good understands the assignment and more than justifies splitting the musical in half. It’s worth leaning into the tornado of turns and manipulation, where well-staged hints of the Wizard of Oz support a film that’s ultimately about friendship and hope. You should be stretching credulity with an Ozian movie like this, and it more than rewards with a digital, physical, musical oasis. Universal will surely be looking to see how they can extend the universe, and why not? Wicked has put the Oz back into Christmoz.

The DCU begins with a competent, universe-building adventure that’s big on heart but short on tangible threat. Bright and beautiful, Superman feels like stepping into comic books and is an excellent sign that Gunn can create a unified world that brings the best of the medium to the screen. The trade-off is the world-building that has scuppered many a shared universe early on and doesn’t give us enough of Big Blue.
