This movie was pretty bad. I was bored from start to finish. It felt like somebody wanted to make a sequel but wasn't clever enough to come up with one so they decided to remake the first one only worse. Adding more characters and braindead animals doesn't make it different or better. The story made no sense this time around, there wasn't really a villain and the purpose of the journey wasn't exactly clear. Overall, very weak and convoluted story with terrible songs, terrible writing, boring characters, unfunny humor and dull. The visuals were geat though. Except for Maui. It seems unnecessary to make him as ugly as they do. It's pretty excessive. It's like they were designing the character and somebody kept barging in and saying "nope, not ugly enough. Keep trying".

I don't think I've ever seen a show fall off a cliff like this one. Season 1 and 2 were absolutely incredible and even season 3 was pretty good but slowly the show started to degrade. I still recommend everyone watch the early seasons and if you are brave enough to continue into the later seasons, that's your prerogative but be ready to be disappointed. Season 6 is absolutely awful. So bad, in fact that I can't imagine wanting to watch whatever trash they come up with for season 7 The writing and acting in season 6 are atrocious. The writing is lazy and intelligent. Some of the episodes could pass for high school writers. The early seasons were well thought out and often had a poingant message that often left me thinking for days. This newer stuff is utter garbage with the viewer being bludgeoned by the message at every turn. Subtlety and good story telling have been replaced. It's so sad to see the creativity of a once bold show get sucked out like this.
