Review of Moana (2016) by Moviemitch96 — 13 Dec 2016

A fun, dazzling, pretty to look at, albeit predictable and formulaic effort from Disney. While the voice talent from Dwayne Johnson and Auli'i Cravalho was perfectly suited and like I said, the film had gorgeous animation throughout, the setup of the story was simply too formulaic and predictable throughout for my liking.

I always found myself knowing what was likely gonna happen next and the film really took no risks or tried anything new in terms of the plot and main conflict. Overall, it's a fun little film while it lasts but I really didn't find myself loving it like most did.

Simply put, I thought it was good not great and Disney has certainly impressed me far more with some of their other films, like Zootopia from earlier this year for example.
