Not Disney's best, but certainly not their worst. Since it's on Disney+, you might as well check it out.

Quem disse que toda trama de animação vive de final feliz, pelo menos não no amor, Disney anda inovando com temas interessantes como feminismo, o poder da mulher, sem preconceitos.

'Raya e o Último Dragão' é bom pela história que é contadaQuem disse que toda trama de animação vive de final feliz, pelo menos não no amor, Disney anda inovando com temas interessantes como feminismo, o poder da mulher, sem preconceitos.

'Raya e o Último Dragão' é bom pela história que é contada desde criança, em retrospecto contando até chegar na fase adulta que ela tenta proteger seu povo em uma luta árdua contra os inimigos.
Bem, o filme traz uma perspectiva nova com muita cultura e cores, um dos mais promissores filmes desse ano, com belos gráficos é bom do começo ao fim, roteiro bem estruturado, nada de clichês de animação, uma história autêntica digna de um Oscar.

Acredito que a Disney está vendo que 'princesas' não vingam mais, o mundo está mudando, isso eu percebia desde 'Frozen' que era uma princesa porém não se casou com ninguém, a história de final feliz nos filmes de animação nem sempre é um amor, casa e banho mas pode ser um final feliz tipo como esse de Raya salvando a sua aldeia e lutando por seu povo, excelente filme!… Expand

Raya and the Last Dragon is an original (oh thank god) Disney animation movie that was overshadowed because it's $30 on Disney+ and it came out the same day as the WandaVision finale. I was intrigued to watch this because of it being focusedRaya and the Last Dragon is an original (oh thank god) Disney animation movie that was overshadowed because it's $30 on Disney+ and it came out the same day as the WandaVision finale. I was intrigued to watch this because of it being focused on Asian culture and the fact that it wasn't going to be a musical like Frozen. It felt like the Disney Animation Studios were going to do something different and I liked that. The premise "Long ago, in the fantasy world of Kumandra, humans and dragons lived together in harmony. However, when sinister monsters known as the Druun threatened the land, the dragons sacrificed themselves to save humanity. Now, 500 years later, those same monsters have returned, and it's up to a lone warrior, Raya (Kelly Marie Tran), to track down the last dragon and stop the Druun for good". So is this a great surprise or a very unwelcomed one?

I want to get this straight off my chest but I love that this focuses on Southeast Asia culture. It's nice to see it get more representation in mainstream movies. I also really love the world-building with the Dragons, the overpowering evil force the Druun and the 5 tribes. It feels familiar such as in Avatar: The Last Airbender but in Raya, the world is still different enough to set it apart from others. It is such an interesting world that I wouldn't mind more movies or shows set in this universe.

The animation is very breathtaking and gorgeous. It's very colorful and there are different variety of locations from the bustling city of Talon and the snowy plains of Spine but all of them are visually stunning. I also have to praise James Newton Howard for the score is as there is some rapid music for the more intense scenes and some uplifting scores for the more hopeful moments. The entire score feels like it represents the world of Raya and southeast Asia perfectly and it elevates the movie to another level. It also has a great song in the credit "Lead the Way" by Jhené Aiko. There are also some surprisingly great hand to hand combat and swordplay that would put a fair amount of action movies to shame. It's genuinely got some exciting action sequences!

The titular character herself Raya (Kelly Marie Tran) is also excellent. She's a fierce and courageous warrior princess with some swagger but is flawed in not trusting people and not believing the world can become united again. She never gets to the point of unlikeable and to a certain extent the movie shows she's right in some ways. I thought the dragon Sisu (Awkwafina) might be unbearably annoying from the trailers but she is pretty fun to watch. Raya's developing friendship with the contrasting view of Sisu is enjoyable and Sisu encouraging Raya to change is convincing. Namaari (Gemma Chan) the "villain" is also wonderful and her rivalry with Raya are some of the best parts of the movie. What makes Namaari work as a character is that she is not evil but also flawed like Raya but both have common ground with each other. Throughout the movie instead of wanting Raya to win, you want her and Namaari to solve their conflict and trust one another. The other supporting characters are hilarious and loveable as well. Boun (Izaac Wang) is funny as the owner of a shrimp boat restaurant, Tong (Benedict Wong) is a scary warrior giant with a heart of gold and there is a toddler con artist, need I say more? Every voice actor in this movie does a phenomenal job in their role, especially Kelly Marie Tran as Raya which is just perfect casting. However, I do wish it explored the supporting cast a little bit more through something like a flashback because they just feel like they're along for the ride than significantly important. Furthermore, the story is very predictable and there is genuinely no surprises as it hits a lot of the clichés which is slightly disappointing. The movie also has a surprising amount of exposition throughout the movie instead of just at the beginning which slows the pacing.

Overall, Raya and the Last Dragon is one of the best original Disney Animation movies in a long time. It's filled with amazing visuals, great characters, exhilarating action sequences, a beautiful score and terrific performance from the voice actors. It just does a lot right. I loved the movie and hope Disney does more movies like Raya and The Last Dragon. Just don't do a $30 premium service and just make it free with Disney+ like Soul okay?… Expand

Years later, it’s up to one brave, resourceful woman to find the titular beast and restore unity to the world. The narrative follows a traditional trajectory, but the lively pacing and beautiful animation makes it special. The highlight is the dragon’s character, provided by Awkwafina’s unique personality. The band of supporting creatures are cute. This is Disney animation in its finest traditions with an optimistic message and an upbeat heart. Be sure to arrive on time: There’s a wonderful short set to a groovy tune featuring an elderly couple who becomes young again when they dance in the rain.
NOTE: At the end of the credits, they state that this film was made from 400 different homes with the punchine, “Dude, you’re still on mute!”… Expand

I was a bit late for a review because I didA really good animated movie that won me over with its characters, worldbuilding, themes and story. Also the art style and visuals are beautiful while they have also a great cast of voice actors. I was a bit late for a review because I did not want to pay extra money. Now it is free to watch on Disney+ so I used the opportunity. The movie is a mixture from a fantasy adventure and buddy movie garnered with action and philosophical themes. The story starts 500 years before the events of the movie. The land of Kumandra was a paradise where dragons and humans lived in harmony with the dragons being the guardians and helping the humans. One day the Druu arrived and starting to ravish the lands by turning all humans they touch into stone. The dragons started a last ditch effort to save Kumandra but it had a huge price for them. The humans instead of joining together split and formed opposing fractions constantly at the brink of conflict. Raya is the daughter of the Hearts tribes chief who are the guardians of an ancient gem. Her father wanted nothing more than the people to reunite to erase the conflicts, separation and distrust between the many factions. With this the set up starts and also Raya’s (heroes) journey. The story is engaging as the characters have all believable motives, the progress is immersive and enjoyable and the twists are good. I must admit that firstly I thought they used a lot (=too much) of tropes but they proved me wrong later as it felt fresh and was enjoyable. It avoided also the Disney princess tropes and at the end I was amazed by this. At the end the story was compelling and never felt boring. The characters are the greatest strength of the movie. Lets start with Raya voiced by Kelly Marie Tran who made the heroes journey. She is fully relatable in her struggles and a great character. Her growth is excellent and she won me over easily. Sidenote: Dear Rian Johnson this is the talent you wasted. Sisu voiced by Awkwafina is the comic relief and so enjoyable. Together with Raya they have a great dynamic and good chemistry. These two alone are worth watching the movie. It ends not here as we have little Noi voiced by Thalia Tran with her “gang” as hidden star of the movie. She is cute, a loveable scoundrel and you should never underestimate her and her gang ;-). Then there is Boun voiced by Izaac Wang who is an orphan who is far wiser than his age make him look. Namaari voiced by Gemma Chan is Raya’s rival. She made also a journey and has excellent character development. She and Raya are like two sides of a coin. Lastly for the team there is Tong who is a stoic and kind warrior. For the rest I will praise Virana voiced by Sandra Oh ans Benja voiced by Daniel Dae Kim for their smaller but good roles. I almost forgot Tuk Tuk who is Raya’s best (animal) friend and a cute mixture of armadillo and pill bug. Like I already said the cast is amazing and fully delivers. Then there are the visuals and art style. Everything looks great, made me want to explore the fauna and flora of the world including sight seeing for the locations. They put a lot of effort in it and I praise them for this. The soundtrack enhances the atmosphere and is truly great but I must admit that I did not look up on Google / YouTube for a specific song. The action and fights feel amazing to watch even when the focus is not on them. Finally there are a lot of philosophical themes in the movie and a lot to discuss (Wont go into details because of spoilers). Overall this was a truly excellent movie. It was immersive, enjoyable and had great humor atop of a great heroes journey. Might not be my favorite animated movie but is still worth a 10/10.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Raya and The Last Dragon Flies By Too Fast?
After watching Raya and the Last Dragon for the first time in theaters, I felt a bit of a rush going into this film. Now take as it may, almost everything was absolutely on point. When you deal with a pretty fast pace however, it is hard to connect with the film's merits. Raya and the Last Dragon had some amazing animation. From the fluidity of the water to well-motioned action sequences. In addition, the characters were absolutely enjoyable to watch. Especially the last dragon herself, Sisu. It was certainly a great sight to see! I just wished that the movie could have presented it in a bit of a slower pace. Instead, I felt like I was playing a game of leap frog with each scene jumping into the next. Going from one location to other, introducing a new character after the other, you name it. It all happens so fast, and I really wished this whole adventure could last just a little bit longer! Now this could just be me talking and someone else might get a different experience watching. No matter though, Raya and the Last Dragon is good start to 2021 animation cinema and I encourage general audiences to watch this. Just don't snore to the movie's ending in the theater like the father that was behind me. You will surprised how this all wraps up. 8/10… Expand

I really liked the main idea of the whole story: humans, as of now, is a plague to our planet. We are the ones to blame for destroying nature and screwing up things on this planet. The worst thing is that it won't change anytime soon, unlike in this movie...

Sisu says: Druun is a plague born from human discord. Instead of bringing life to the world, it's like fire that burning everything to ash...
Again, she is talking about us, humans - we have the power to make the world better place, but instead we use that power to destroy our only home (Earth).

The visuals is a technical and artistic achievement over many years - I can say it's one of the best graphics I've ever seen in movie!

Now to the cons:
- Story are rushed. Like REALLY rushed! For a more complete, not rushed version, it should have at least (!) 30 minutes more time! (up to 2 hours, without counting 10-min credits at the end). But instead they just wasted 20 min on prologue, REALLY screwed up thing from timestamps 1 hour:15 min to 1 hour:30 min (the MOST rushed section!).
- Writers screwed up the plot and most of the characters, except two main ones: Raya and Sisu. Others just don't have enough time for character development... Story feels waaaaay too childish (you really treat kids like dumbasses?). Also, why we need so many tribes and locations if they serve their purpose ONLY as a scenery? We don't have ANY background of tribes, and environments changes too quickly to appreciate them (did I say story was rushed?).
- Cliches - LOTS OF THEM! And I hate it!!!

To sum up: great visuals and two main characters (Raya and Sisu), loved the main idea.
But the narrative is waaaaay too rushed, inconsistent, blunt and childish.

I still don't understand why they won't hire good script writers who would deliver mature stories in presentable way for kids (like anime does) without using TONS of cliches! (it's a problem of modern industry, not just in film, but in games too...)… Expand

I skipped the Mulan remake altogether. Turns out Raya is an effort with women in several key story and creative positions. The themes are trust and redemption. Its humanity moved me emotionally. The CGI has so much realism, this feels almost like alive-action animated hybrid. It has a Disney short animation, at the start. It's called "Us Again." It's wordless and stellar in its humanity. The catch is, to like Raya as much as I did, you may have to like animation in general. It appears many reviewers who disliked Raya, are intolerant of animation's use of tropes when making product for children. You also have to not mind Disney expanding Disney Princesses into SE Asia geography. A user review kicks Raya because it doesnt explore SE Asia culture in any meaningful way. It's not about SE Asia; it's a story about how not to get discouraged if you believe in world peace. Raya plays like Moana (2016). If my memory serves, Disney Pochahontes plays similarly. Native American Indian culture is simply a backdrop. Take this from a writer, the theme, the story, the character arc has to be front and center. Otherwise you end up with a travelogue.… Expand

It doesn't discover anything, but it knows how to do things well with what it has and that's something that many films rarely manage to do with grace.

The animation is top-notch and I expected no less. Disney and Pixar have gone their respective ways when it comes to it, but at least there's always a guarantee that they get better with every new film they release.

The movie magic that Disney brings to their audience has shown why they deserve 10 stars. What a wholesome, magical and breathe-taking movie. It really is something that I have missed from Disney.

Pará terminar y no menos importante, la calidad de la animación es sencillamente BESTIAL Y TODOPODEROSA … Expand

The graphics are beautiful! The animations are beautiful! It's a "7" from me! The only thing that irritated me a bit is the way the dragons look. Come on, they look like colorful ponies.

Although the story may seem to drag on, it more than makes up for that with a solid story and setting, great chemistry with the characters and stunning animation I haven't seen since Disney's 'Moana'

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The film is not the best, but it has great potential for development. I hope to show more and tell less in the sequel. It would even be great if they did a show like Kung Fu Panda or How to Train Your Dragon.… Expand

The dragons, they have fur and that's weird, even the water one. But overall I liked the message and the move it's pretty good.

Raya and the Last Dragon breaks the Princess movie formula in several ways - it’s not a musical, and it borrows as much from an Indiana Jones adventure as from the classic Disney canon - but the new influences make it something bigger and better with a broader appeal. Visually, the movie is stunning, with a color palette and environments that technically exceed even the best previous animated efforts. The team behind the movie should congratulate themselves on a job very, very well done.… Expand

A good Pixar film that explores ideas of cooperation and forgiveness. Though at points it does get a bit hokey, it's worth a watch.

This is the best 2021 animated films I've ever watched in theaters. I wish this film would be also re-released.
