Ah yes, Disney has done it yet again. Still somehow not learning from their past mistakes, they have released another live-action remake of one of their classics, MOANA. The original came out just 10 years ago, while the sequel came out 2 years ago. So why on Te Fiti’s green Earth did they release this one now? I’ll give you two reasons. First, because money. Disney is so desperate to make these remakes profitable, which has been somewhat reliable for them. The second reason is Dwayne Johnson. I believe he wanted to reprise his role before it passed him by, no matter how he looked. Seeing him in this role just made me think of how much we take animators for granted. They had the ability to make characters more expressive and fun, which is missing here. This review is complicated, yet simple. Everything I love about this movie is because it’s copy-and-pasted from the animated original. The amazing songs, the great island of Motunui and its people, the story of a young girl chosen by the sea to save the world with the help of an egotistical demigod named Maui. They got back Jermaine Clement as the giant crab. Even the visuals, while mostly CGI, are fine here. Saying that, for some reason, it looks like they sucked out some of the colour that made the original beautiful and vibrant. This movie cost around $250 million, which is still insane to me. Just their latest bomb. This cash grab might not have much cash for Disney to grab this time. The general public are finally getting burnt out on these remakes. This is not the worst one they’ve made (looking at you MULAN), but at this point, I’m burnt out. Disney, just stop it. I know you have a few more on your plate, such as HERCULES and TANGLED. You’re just trying to ruin my childhood, one movie at a time. This movie doesn’t bring anything new to the table. Overall, if you’re asking yourself whether or not to see MOANA (2026), the answer would be no, because you have a much better version at home for free on Disney Plus. What can I say except you’re welcome!
