The School for Good and Evil poster

Why people love it

The School for Good and Evil (2022) stuck because it commits to its fantasy premise without apologizing—viewers remember set pieces and momentum as much as plot. Paul Feig's control of tone keeps the ride coherent. The fantasy and comedy blend is the engine: it lets the film shift registers without feeling like two different movies stitched together.
