First off, I just wanna say, wow! That really exceeded my expectations! I haven't seen the musical, but I did look it up & have listened to the whole album with the original Broadway cast just to get a bit of context of what's going to happen, & I'm honestly surprised Disney is the company to adapt this musical onto the big screen as it does contain pretty dark & adult moments & Sondheim himself has said that most of it is going to be kept in. Considering most of the cast has had previous experience with Broadway/musical related projects, I have high hopes that they'll be good in their roles, especially with Anna Kendrick, Meryl Streep, Johnny Depp & Daniel Huttlestone. I've heard good things about Emily Blunt & James Corden's singing, but I'm just gonna wait & see for them. I do like the connections with the characters with all of them saying 'I wish' along with Meryl Streep's witch character at the end kickstarting the plot & making the movie a huge fairy tale crossover. It doesn't actually go into what happens in the plot, but I like that it establishes the premise of a fairy tale crossover & that the characters will be connected together in the film. Anyway, I also have to say that the movie looks absolutely gorgeous with the fairy tale setting with the cinematography, costume design, production design & even the CGI is put to good use & it doesn't really look overused like other big budget fairy tale films out there. Another note I wanna add is I like that the Johnny Depp wolf character is being hidden & I want it to be kept that way so it can be a surprise for when it comes out as I feel like he's really overused nowadays with the advertising in his movies. I mean, it doesn't say he's the main character, which he isn't, but I like that just showing his arm is a taster of what's to come in the film. And considering it has the producer of Wicked & the director of the Chicago movie under it's belt along with the same person that wrote the original script doing the screenplay & Stephen Sondheim himself, I have very high hopes for this movie!
