The main selling point remains Moana herself: the sparkiest and most intrepid Disney heroine of them all.

Moana 2 touts the power of human (and non-human) connection, and the film will certainly connect with its target audience. But it doesn’t trust viewers enough to feel for themselves.

I got done seeing Moana 2 on Disney+ and I got to say it was good I just didn't get into it because it was weird because it was supposed to be a Disney+ series but Disney said we're making it into a movie instead in the swim really makes the whole movie feel like a show because it was literally supposed to be a show on Disney+ not a movie but Disney decided to release it in theaters by Disney should've had changed the script from the show script to a movie script instead of just copying the script of the show and putting it into a movie which is pretty messed up but the movie was pretty good it's was just weird & i like the music it's really good but just the entire script of the movie just feel like they rushed it they just rushed it they just wanted to release it real fast and have everybody go to the theaters and instead I just watching it on Disney+ because it was supposed to be a show & But Moana 2 was good it's not better than the first one but it has a good story but it just need a little bit more of Disney Magic

The studio’s latest likable musical is nicely animated, has nice characters and a few nice songs. At risk of repeating myself: It’s nice.

Despite all this Moana moaning, though, it's still a high-quality piece of work: a hurtling Disneyland rollercoaster ride that small children, especially, are bound to enjoy. The irony is that if it had been a television series, viewers might well have gushed about how spectacular it was. But as a film, Moana 2 wouldn't be near the top of any list of Disney's finest.

Too much of Moana 2 is simply far too familiar to make it anything more than a convenient escape.
Nov 26, 2024
Without the musical heart or stirring adventure of the first movie, Moana 2 relies on a surprising amount of gross-out humor and meta jokes to keep audiences engaged.
Nov 26, 2024
Moana 2 is finally here, ready to assault audiences this holiday season with one of the most ill-conceived sequels in Disney history. It took three directors to sink this movie — Dana Ledoux Miller, Jason Hand and David Derrick Jr. — and it’s so bad it feels like they did it on purpose.

I won’t deny that Moana 2 is an easy watch. It’s entertaining, colorful, and it takes us back to a world that once worked beautifully. But it also feels like one of those sequels that exists more out of momentum than real necessity. It’s well made, yes, but it rarely **** main issue is the sense of repetition. The film moves forward competently, linking together set pieces that work on their own, yet without a real narrative urgency. Things happen because they have to, not because the journey truly demands it. It often feels like the story takes too long to justify itself, and by the time it does, we’re already standing on very familiar ground.Visually, there’s little to complain about. The animation is stunning, the ocean remains hypnotic, and the world-building is still one of Disney’s strongest achievements in recent years. Some moments are enjoyable purely for how they look, with a level of detail that’s genuinely **** songs, however, don’t carry the same weight as in the first film. They’re pleasant and keep the tone light, but few really stick. They work within the movie, yet fade quickly once it’s **** the end, Moana 2 is a polite, agreeable sequel designed not to offend anyone. It will satisfy its younger audience and loyal fans, but it’s unlikely to leave a lasting impression. Enjoyable while it lasts, but hardly essential.

Moana makes another splash... but not quite as big.ADVENTUROUS - EXCITING - CONFUSING - GENUINEWhile staying true to the heart of the original, this sequel takes Moana's story into the future. It is a genuine continuation of her character development. The climax had some cool visual concepts, and pushes the story to some sudden limits. This is what's working. Show us more of this. The middle is fairly weak... Matangi is both confusing and weak as a character. Are we supposed to like her? Be scared of her? Is she a double agent for Nalo? These are questions we're asking in the middle party of the story, and not in a good way. You could remove her from the plot, and still move the story forward. So she just becomes a vessel to set up things part a third movie. Her song is actually vital to the story and Moana's character arc... but it should have been the focus of Maui's musical number. His song is totally redundant; all of that had already been established.One of the strongest characters is actually her ancestor, Tautai Vasa. We saw a few glimpses of him in the first film, and it was a brilliantly strong choice to bring him back. He adds dimension to the story as a wayfinding guide for Moana. We see the Ocean again, Maui, and her chieftain father, but also new characters as Moana builds her wayfinding crew. This helps differentiate it from Moana, which had a uniquely small cast. I didn't fully realize it until watching Moana 2, but she might be the only Disney princess that doesn't have a love interest! (Unless you're counting Merida (Pixar) and Raya.) Brave choice from Disney, but it's absolutely what the Disney princess genre needs. Lack of romance in her story (up until this point at least...) gives time to develop her character as an individual apart from romantic involvement. This is a message and example that girls need to see. The new songs aren't quite the same caliber... The style felt like they were trying to imitate Manuel-Miranda's work from the first one, and it's not always working. Too many of the song sequences were the "take you out of the immediate setting into a storybook pop-up world" style... which is an easy shortcut for movie musicals. The musical numbers need to drive the story forward, not take you out of it. "Beyond" is Moana's song though, and I love that they bring back the "I am Moana!" line in those lyrics. It connects the two films, and I wish there was a bit more of those nods. There's a mid-credits scene (Marvel has ruined us haha) that teases a third film... ehhh... I'm not excited for that. This second installment was good, but a downward slope from the first film... Disney will have to do some wayfinding of their own to course correct the story if their aiming for a trilogy.

No one asked for the sequel, and it wasn't needed.The movie is really bad, only worth it if you have young children.
