Naw. I was a bit worried when they said they were splitting it, but my wife and I love Wicked (she talked about it on our second date and before our third date I had listened to the soundtrack and sent her my thoughts and started reading the book), so we went to see it opening night.
Having seen it, I now think it’s a very appropriate use of the Part I/Part II split. They divide the movies at the intermission of the musical, Act I is Part I and Act II will be Part II. This may seem silly since the musical itself is about as long as Part I (if you include intermission), but a musical can tell a story like this much faster than a movie. Movies have establishing shots and reaction shots, longer action sequences, time spent allowing moments to land, letting scenes breathe, people taking in their surroundings, etc.
If they had tried to cram both acts into one movie it would’ve felt extremely rushed. They barely added any story elements to the movie, and song-wise only really added a bit to One Short Day, but it still filled it’s runtime and never (to me anyway) felt like it was dragging or filler.
We loved it. Now, we’re biased because we love the musical, but it’s a good musical. So I recommend the movie!
