Review of Moana (2016) by 43In2014 — 09 Dec 2016
Related media: There are no media related to this film. I am also not familiar with Hawaiian/Polynesian stories/myths/religions.
What's it like?: It is like a couple of films in the past where the elders try to prevent their child/children from venturing out of their village/town for fear of the evils/nastiness of the world outside of the village/town. The Village is one such example. Pros:
1. It is a good as Frozen, but has more realism, but see Cons # 1.
2. It is very beautiful, particularly the parts showing the movement of water and on scene with many colours. Frozen did not look as good in this area.
3. This film introduces some aspects of Hawaiian/Polynesian stories/myths/religions, and that's fun to watch. 4. There are some nice original songs.
5. There is a nice twist at the end.
Cons: 1. There are many parts that deal with magic and spirits, which lessen the realism.
How would the the different age groups rate it?
Children: Excellent.
Teens: Excellent.
Young adults: Good.
Medium age adults: Good.
Old adults: Excellent.
My rating: 5/5 (no half scores). It's worth it to watch it in the cinemas and then buy the DVDs.
