What people are saying
It’s the best of these movies I’ve seen…And it’s a rather odd bar, since this is an entire genre in which the definition of the genre is that it’s completely and totally unnecessary. These movies add nothing (except to Disney’s revenues).
Because the new ‘Moana’ truly delivers ‘Moana’: the beauty, the comic personality, the fairy-tale enchantment.
