*SPOILERS* I think the ending would have been beautiful and more epic if, during the scene at the bottom of the ocean with the ancestor spirits, Moana had actually stayed dead and we saw her spirit join the rest of the ancestors. Meanwhile, Maui would have stayed mortal (the tattoos and hook disappeared). But... it's a Disney movie, and it's too bittersweet an ending. Plus it would be harder to figure out how to bring them back for the inevitable Moana 3. I guess they gotta go defeat the big bad god guy. My thought seeing it the first time was also like that it seemed more like a direct to VHS movie of the 90s, like Lion King 2, Aladdin 2 & 3, etc. But watching a second time with the Rejects, I enjoyed the music more (except that The Rock cannot sing), and the story flowed a bit better. Also, I thought the bat lady was a really big loose end originally, since we never see her again in the movie, but now realize that she's in a mid-credits scene.

2025-01-29 19:27:06 +0000 UTCI was thinking about The Little Mermaid 2 during this. I completely agree with Greg about the direct to video. Apparently this was supposed to be a series, maybe that's why it feels like a setup for part 3. Overall I liked it, some parts felt rushed. The songs were okay.

2025-01-29 18:26:06 +0000 UTCthe first was definitely better in terms of plot and songs. BUT, as a stand alone film, this movie is pretty good
