This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ~ Disney Crafts a Cinematic Gem ~

To transverse the world in which Moana takes place is undoubtedly an experience of blissful joy. The film’s directors (John Musker, Ron Clements) and its animators have constructed the South Pacific in a rather elegant manner — oceans appear almost life-like in color / clarity and the islands themselves are a hypnotic lush green. The byproduct of this polished look is an Island that enthralls the viewer; you feel compelled to plunge amidst this gorgeous world and experience first-hand its bright palette. This in of itself is the magic behind Disney: a superimposed prettiness paralleled with a charming narrative.

Seasoned Disney directors John Musker and Ron Clements (The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Hercules) adhere to an already established blueprint: we have a three-dimensional protagonist (Moana) whose overt wanderlust impels her to adventure beyond her Polynesian village in spite of her fathers overprotective nature. Interesting plot developments are made as we see the relationship between Moana and the pretentious demigod Maui (Dwayne Johnson) evolve. The narrative advances like the typical hero’s journey — unique in that we have a teen heroine sans a love interest. Moana consistently hits the mark in that its story is entirely revolved around its heroine — a headstrong Polynesian girl who is unapologetically herself. With Moana, Disney finds itself once again a juggernaut in the world of film.… Expand

Moana is an enchanting disney movie in this year, though maybe people will prefer Zootopia than this. But, I don't watch Zootopia and other disney movies that released this year.

Dumb/friendly animal sidekick? Check. Awesome strong sidekick? Check. Story about discovering yourself/ love/ whatever? Check. Audience humor (humor that is dumb enough for dumb audience members)? Check.

This is no surprise of course; this is the same team of directors behind every Disney movie ever (hyperbole). However, this movie is lifted by smooth animation (especially those tattoos that were traditionally animated), creative sequences, an awesome soundtrack, nice voice-work, and the general backgrounds and settings that carry the film. All of these elements elevate this dumb, lazy, and boring movie (in terms of the writing and direction) enough that it is good.

It's also better than Frozen if you're worrying about that.… Expand

Inspiring and conscious of bestowing important moral messages. Its one drawback being the underlying reliance on a storyline formula that has been seen time and again. This doesn't take away from the surprising laughs and moments of reflection that will affect all ages.

While I typically have a problem with cookie cutter plots, like the generic buddy cop action in Zootopia, the Disney princess formula has never left a bad taste in anyone's mouth.

Sure it's the same old story, but as the saying goes "If it isn't broken, don't fix it." Moana stars a young Polynesian princess who has been chosen by the water to restore the heart of Te Fiti and save the world. She succeeds in her mission with all of the classic Disney tropes. Running away from her family while singing a song about being free, but not before one of the family members die. Bringing an animal sidekick on her journey. You all know the drill. While the movie does make an attempt to joke about the Disney stereotypes of a princess, that doesn't exactly justify them. Joking about how you're stealing candy from a baby doesn't justify the fact that you're still stealing candy from a baby.

The characters in this movie are very likable. Moana may not stand out as a "powerful female lead" like the feminists may want you to believe, but she gets an A for effort. There's no romantic subplot, and Moana does do fairly decent on her own sometimes. She does mostly get help from the ocean and Maui, but she does have a few moments where she sines. Maui, played by Dwayne Johnson, is a very entertaining portrayal of the Polynesian hero. He definitely dishes out some hilarious jokes, and his development feels believable as he just wants love from the humans and would do anything to earn it.

The animation in the movie is downright jaw-dropping. The water glows and moves in a way unlike any other water I've seen in animation. I couldn't even imagine PIXAR, the king of CGI animation, creating something as beautiful as Moana. They capture the feel of Polynesian islands without fail, and the mythical places, like the realm of monsters, feel very creative. Everything on the characters looks natural as well. The way they move, the way their hair moves, the way their clothing moves. It's all incredible.

The soundtrack for the movie is definitely one of the most unique in Disney's recent lineup. Sure you'll have your generic magical sidekick "Friend Like Me" pop up in the form of Dwayne Johnson's "You're Welcome" or a song about a girl being free as cookie cutter as "Let it Go" in the form of Moana's "How Far I'll Go" but the movie is also has some very bizarre sounding tracks that feel as though they could only fit in this move. "Shiny" is a good example of this.

Overall, I highly recommend Moana. It's a beautifully animated adventure starring two of Disney's most likable protagonist in their fun song-filled quest to save the day. There's great humor, a light nature that's easy to get into, and a bouncy soundtrack that's difficult to get out of your head. While it does fall victim to the typical Disney princess plot, minus the romance, it's not enough to leave a huge scratch on this magnificent movie.… Expand

The character of Moana was well developed, as you see her be indecisive and unsure, and you see why due to her upbringing and the general backstory of the island. You cared for her and her silly companions, who were (albeit surprisingly) quite funny on more than one occasion. Dwayne Johnson was very good as Maui, and his you went through a love-hate relationship with him, therefore his character was well developed as well. The songs that are featured in this movie are, for me, some of Disney's best in a while, You're Welcome (Maui's song, I'm 99% sure that's the title) was an extremely catchy tune, for me as memorable as King Louie's song in the Jungle Book (though not as good as Friend Like Me, for me the best ever Disney song xD). All in all, beautiful animation, engaging characters and very, very good songs.… Expand

It's also a movie with an ecological theme... I personally find myself in Moana, I'm identical to her... it was nice to see a heroine who finally resembled me perfectly (especially in her sensitive and compassionate side)... this didn't happen by Belle of "Beauty and the Beast" (another Classic Disney I love)! When I saw the trailers and everything, I expected that I would have liked the movie, but not so much to consider it among my favorite animated films (and not only), I was surprised! Also, this movie has crazy characters, wonderful music, sparkling colors, it's fun, has a majestic and epic tone, it's sometimes dark (and I like it so much), not to mention that it's very faithful to Polynesian culture, and this is very beautiful! All these things made me love this movie so much, and besides it's very moving and emotional! I cried in 7/8 scenes (and I'm not joking)... I recommend it to anyone!!! Another Disney Masterpiece for me!!!… Expand

ElBueno, me esperaba que por la ambientación que cuenta la historia de una tribu (cosa que a mi, esa clase de películas basadas en tribus me encantan) esperaba que fuera mejor. Los gráficos son muy buenos... Las canciones, no son malas... El problema es que son excesivas y parecen estar de relleno mas que para acompañar bien de forma fluida la trama (un buen ejemplo es Aladdin). La historia me gusto en parte, ya que si bien la introducción es excelente, al final acaba siendo bastante genérica con el paso del tiempo. Una vez que Moana abandona su isla, ahí la calidad de la película baja bastante... Y es una pena la verdad. Y por ultimo, Maui si bien su personalidad se va desarrollando poco a poco, al principio es muy insoportable y no se puede en ningún momento establecer química entre ambos protagonistas. En conclusión, Moana tenia potencial, pero los gráficos no definen a una película buena, ni las canciones solamente... es una combinación de todo! Igualmente tengo que destacar las partes en las que aparece la abuela de Moana. Si que las disfrute mucho...… Expand

On the Polynesian island of Motunui, the inhabitants worship the goddess Te Fiti, who brought life to the ocean using a pounamu stone as her heart and the source of her power. Maui, the shape-shifting demigod and master of sailing, steals theOn the Polynesian island of Motunui, the inhabitants worship the goddess Te Fiti, who brought life to the ocean using a pounamu stone as her heart and the source of her power. Maui, the shape-shifting demigod and master of sailing, steals the heart to give humanity the power of creation. However, Te Fiti disintegrates, and Maui is attacked by another who seeks the heart: Te Kā, a volcanic demon. Maui is blasted out of the sky, losing both his magical giant fishhook and the heart to the depths of the sea.

A millennium later, the ocean chooses Moana, daughter of Motunui's chief Tui, to return the heart to Te Fiti. Tui takes Moana away, causing her to lose the heart. Tui and Sina, Moana's mother, try to keep her away from the ocean to prepare her for ascension as the island's chief. Sixteen years later, a blight strikes the island, killing vegetation and shrinking the fish catch. Moana suggests going beyond the island's reef to find more fish and figure out what is happening, but Tui forbids it. Moana tries conquering the reef but is overpowered by the tides and shipwrecked back to Motunui with Pua the pig.

Moana's grandmother, Tala, shows her a secret cave of ships, revealing that their people were voyagers until Maui stole Te Fiti's heart; the ocean was no longer safe without it. Tala explains that Te Kā's darkness is poisoning the island, but can be cured if Moana finds Maui and makes him restore the heart of Te Fiti, which she gives to Moana. Tala falls ill and, on her death bed, tells Moana that she must depart to find Maui.

Setting sail on a camakau from the cavern, Moana is caught in a typhoon and shipwrecked on an island where she finds Maui, who boasts about his achievements. She demands that Maui return the heart, but he refuses and traps her in a cave. She escapes and confronts Maui, who reluctantly lets her on the camakau. They are attacked by Kakamora—small, coconut-armored pirates—who seek the heart, but Moana and Maui outwit them. Moana realizes Maui is no longer a hero since he stole the heart and cursed the world, and convinces him to redeem himself by returning the heart. Maui first needs to retrieve his magical fishhook in Lalotai, the Realm of Monsters, from Tamatoa, a giant coconut crab. While Moana distracts Tamatoa, Maui retrieves his hook but discovers he can no longer control his shape-shifting. He is overpowered by Tamatoa, but Moana's quick thinking allows them to escape with the hook. Maui reveals that his first tattoo was earned when his mortal parents abandoned him as an infant, and the gods, taking pity on him, granted him his powers. After reassurance from Moana, Maui teaches her the art of sailing, regaining control of his powers, and the two grow closer.

They arrive at Te Fiti's island, only to be attacked by Te Kā. Moana refuses to turn back, resulting in Maui's hook being badly damaged. Unwilling to lose his hook in another confrontation with Te Kā, Maui abandons Moana, who tearfully asks the ocean to find someone else to restore the heart and loses hope. The ocean obliges and takes the heart, but Tala's spirit appears, inspiring Moana to find her true calling. She retrieves the heart and sails back to confront Te Kā. Maui returns, having had a change of heart, and buys Moana time to reach Te Fiti by fighting Te Kā, destroying his hook in the process. Moana discovers Te Fiti is missing, and realizes Te Kā is Te Fiti, corrupted without her heart. Moana tells the ocean to clear a path, allowing her to return Te Fiti's heart, and the restored goddess heals the ocean and islands of the blight. Maui apologizes to Te Fiti, who restores his hook and gives Moana a new boat before falling into a deep sleep and becoming a mountain.

Moana bids farewell to Maui, returning home where she reunites with her parents. She takes up her role as chief and wayfinder, leading her people as they resume voyaging.… Expand

Moana is a heartwarming and visually stunning film that follows the journey of the eponymous Moana, a young girl who sets out on a quest to find the lost demigod Maui and return the heart of the goddess Te Fiti to its rightful owner in orderMoana is a heartwarming and visually stunning film that follows the journey of the eponymous Moana, a young girl who sets out on a quest to find the lost demigod Maui and return the heart of the goddess Te Fiti to its rightful owner in order to save her home island. The film is directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, who were originally planning to adapt Terry Prachett's Mort as their next project, but rights issues prevented this. Moana is a Disney classic, but it is not without its flaws. The story is intricate but familiar, and the film bears striking similarities to Disney's previous classics. Moana is a refreshing change from Disney's usual insert-Prince-here love story, and the character development is charming and genuine. The animation is stunning and the film is also very funny, with a handful of genuine belly laughs. Despite its familiar story and character types, Moana is a film for all ages that will leave viewers with ear-worm songs and a warm heart.
