Descendants 2

The story is not interesting, and adding new character. it like they try to push the 4 main one down with this Uma character. The dance is not as sharp as the old one. The last scene where a dragon fight with an octopus, really? In many way, everyone know dragon would kill that octopus for lunch not like it has a very hard time fighting it. come on Disney, you guys really going down hill.

First off I love the Idea some of the characters of these movies, but the execution is always lacking. Disney made bank off of the first one but it doesn't feel like they put any more money and effort into this one.

First off the CGI is completely HORRIBLE!!!! It really took me out of the show every time there was any CGI.

Second the "Costume Designers" should be fired as a lot of the colors clash and the clothes never seem to fit correctly.

The Acting and story was below what they should be aiming for as some areas felt really forced or unnatural. Cameron Boyce seemed to do OK but non of them can do great with this story.

It also doesn't tie into the Wicked world series as non of the new characters from that show were even in the movie. I also find Wicked Worlds story to be more interesting.

Now on to the singing.... Why was 99% of this show completely auto-tuned??? I know auto-tune can have a cool effect when used sparingly but they used it to the point that ruined songs!

The sets were very basic with horrible lighting.Why does this feel like a good high school drama set?

I also really wish they would add some better characters. Dopeys son feels forced there was no need for chad (the second son to the throne). I would love to see some of the wicked world cast and maybe the mad hatters daughter/son. Someone that is a little mad but in a good way. Pouring tea in a inopportune time or buttering a watch or celebrating someones unbirthday. There seems to be so many opportunities that they missed with the character choice. I also think they need to do something to the Beasts son Ben. Not only is his actor horrible but is character is very bland. Maybe get under a curse that changes how he looks so they can get a better actor and change his personality.

Please Disney I want to love this but your cheapness isn't helping. Just reboot it into a full blown movie and get good people to work on it. These actors could probably do a lot more if you give them something better. Shoot Booboo Stewart was actually good in the twilight Movies (not that I liked twilight that much).

'Descendants' became a guilty pleasure of mine. How could you go wrong, with Kristen chenoweth and Kathy najimy? Well I'll tell you how: 'descendants 2'. Remove acting greats from the equation and you just have another campy Disney channel movie. I'll also admit I'm a hopeless romantic who fell for mal and ben's relationship in the first one. Well, the 2nd takes that away for a while, leaving me to be quite bored. Again, Campy. Not even the music was as good this time around. The films redeeming quality doesn't come until the end. I won't spoil it but let's just all say thank god for Disney channel finally allowing some PDA! Even so, I'll stick to the first one, which at least evoked emotion out of me, including 'if only' which I still can't listen to without crying!

Descendants 2, a sequel to the brilliant Descendants shown in 2015. I was glad to see more of the Isle in this film as it shows what surroundings the VKs grew up with. The music to this film was absolutely astonishing and there was no disappointment. It definitely lived up to the first one. Also the costumes were on fleek! I cannot wait to see if there is a descendants number 3 and I would recommend anyone who loves Disney and musicals, especially high school musical, to watch this magnificent film. However there were a few things I was slightly disappointed within the film but nothing that made me dislike the film completely.

Despite being better than the original, Descendants 2 still isn't a very good movie. The characters and plot are still pretty lame.
