Descedentes: A Ascensão de Copas

This movie was so bad and gave me a headache. It is obviously nothing like the first 3 which is what I expected but I did not think it would be this bad. The plot makes absolutely no sense and completely goes against what was true in the originals. The music, acting, and directing is bad. Also the costumes were terrible which was something I really liked in 1,2,and3. Only thing I liked was that the original Uma and Fairy Godmother were in it. This movie was veryveyvegryyryverrryyyy disappointing and boring. I didn't even finish it bc I needed to turn it off. Also the sets were bad. And the movie felt uncomplete. Making this movie was completely unnecessary.

Exactly when the movie seemed to redeem itself, like it was finally heading on a better path- it abruptly ended. I understand the writers might want to leave an open window for a potential 2nd movie, but I think the plot could have been worked with in order to give us something else. There are thousands of ways they could have made this, and the result certainly wouldn't have been this quirky, edgy failed attempt to what could have been otherwise an interesting film. They somehow created sparkling details- the atmosphere, the confrontatione, even the characters were interesting enough, and I adore Red, I see pontential in her character development. But it totally lacked what the original series had: good songs, and the magic that overall glued all the other elements together.

The songs have absolutely nothing near the vibes of the original series. I would rather say all the songs sounded like badly timed pop songs. All the essence from the original series- gone.

This gets 1 higher mark purely for how beautiful they made Wonderland look, and even Merlin Academy.

Like everybody else, I had higher expectations. Like Red & Chloe, I wish I had a time-turning clock, so I could give this movie a higher time-ranged, and a not-so-rushed plot.

Not gonna lie, I was STUPID excited when I saw Brandy was going to be Cinderella. She's my favorite version of the character. I think I was more excited to see her than anything else. And I was happy they got Paolo Montalban to come back as Charming.

And I loved Jeremy Swift as Merlin. He was just like the one from Sword in the Stone. Made him a delight to watch.

For what it is, an adolescent fantasy movie, I really enjoyed it. Music had more of a rock feel then previous Descendants movies. Cast was fun to watch.

The writing could have used a little more work. Feels like they were trying a little bit too hard at times.

As someone who grew up with the Descendants Trilogy I remember watching the first one air on TV for the first time in my grandparents living room. I was in love with everything about the movie. The story, the characters, and of course the songs. So when I heard a fourth film would be coming out, it made sense to me that I would be watching it, having fun, and loving the songs. However, I think I'd rather have my head cut off than watch this again. I will say, when I saw Brandy and Paulo come onto the screen, I began to shed a tear, for I also grew up watching the Cinderella movie. Their voices were both so powerful in that movie. When I heard Brandy start singing, the autotune made me cry. Full on ball. The autotune within everyone in the film was utterly rancid. Definitely the worst of the 4.

I LOVE the Disney Descendants movies. I'm a Disney adult 100%. But this hurts my heart.

You can definitely tell King Kenny Ortega was not apart of this on any capacity. It lacks all the heart that the first 3 movies had. It's sad because it could have been great, a continuation of a new idea of Disney's stories..

And all the influencers are making it out to be the best in the franchise.. I'm so disappointed.

It's rushed, lacking in chemistry, I don't care for any of the songs, and the story isn't well put together. It's almost like they wanted it to be Disney Descendants and heavily Hamilton. Less movie and more stage production being filmed.

Disney, bring back King Kenny!
