Review of The Princess and the Frog (2009) by Meydianarizki21 — 04 Nov 2020

The Best Animated Disney movie in 20 years!

I remember the first time I watched The Princess and the Frog, I had had absolutely no interest in seeing it (I don't even know if I had a reason). So when my mom rented it from Netflix, I begrudgingly sat by her side and watched it with the lowest expectations. I absolutely loved it.

11 years later, it remains my favorite 2D animated Disney movie (just after Beauty and the Beast).

The animation is stunningly beautiful (even the end credits are gorgeous), the soundtrack is fantastic, and there are so many wonderful characters it's hard to choose a favorite. The main character, Tiana, is hardworking, ambitious, and intelligent. Yes, part of the story is her falling in love with a man, but that isn't her goal in the movie, and it isn't the point of the story. They story is all about being true to yourself, working hard for what you want and believing in yourself. It's also about realizing what's important in life, and not getting so wrapped up in how you think life should go that you miss out on other great things.

I can't say enough good things about this movie. It's one that I recommend to anyone who's never seen it.
