Great musical on broadway. I’m sure the movie is mid.
If you like musicals or no, both Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo commit to the roles so thoroughly that the singing seems "natural." It is also a spectacular piece of filmmaking, every bit as fantastical and imaginative as the musical and books. I'm a guy who really prefers "serious" dramas, so I went into it thinking I wouldn't like it, and I liked it quite a bit!
I liked the goat the best.
Watch the Broadway recording (or a bootleg “slime tutorial” on YouTube) if possible. The show is incredible. The movie was just okay for me.
It's musical brilliance at its best!! If you're a music lover, you will thoroughly enjoy yourself.
Have you watched Wizard of Oz? Wicked's a fascinating prequel to The Wizard of Oz, exploring the origin stories of Glinda and the Wicked Witch of the West. I think anyone who loves a fresh perspective on a classic tale would enjoy Wicked a lot!
You should just watch musicals in general. Pretty incredible whole genre you’re denying yourself there.

I also dislike musicals, know nothing about the lore outside of seeing the wizard of oz once as a child, and I still throughly enjoyed it.
Go see it in the biggest theater you can find!
