Andy's KSL-TV #WhatToWatch: ‘Wicked Part 1’ is a fun and stunningly beautiful adaptation of the stage production 

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of November 22, 2024." Wicked" (Part 1) is a stunningly beautiful, colorful, fun, and vibrant cinematographic adaption of the stage production. While the John M. Chu film might be long, it doesn’t seem like it, and it’s not the only solid movie this week. “Wicked” faces of with “Gladiator II,” which is not as enjoyable as the first “Gladiator,” but satisfying nonetheless.  On Apple TV+, get a feel for what it was like in London during one portion of World War II in the movie "Blitz." And over on Netflix, there is a charming animated musical movie "Spellbound.”
