I went to the cinema to watch the origins with my daughter when it came out. When I heard it was being remade, I thought please no! So many Disney live adaptations and all have been disappointing.
My two daughters however wanted to go and watch the adaptation of H2TYD. The trailers looked good so I thought, how bad can they mess it up.
To my surprise it was almost identical to the original. The actors were spot on, the pacing was great and the CGI and music was fantastic! It has that emotional connection you get when the music is that good.
What a guilty pleasure but definitely the best live action adaptation I've seen.
Go and watch, great fun!

Another wonderful educational documentary about how humans are destroying this planet. This time he concentrates on the Ocean where new discoveries are being made on a daily basis.
The impact of industrial fishing and the impact is is not only having under the sea but also on land. The ocean gives us more back than anyone thought, Sir David is on a mission to unlocks the secrets of the deep.
We have to stop this insanity for the sake of every living organism on this planet but will we,,?
Upsetting and utterly brilliant at the same time. A must watch for anyone who cares about the impact we have on this planet.

We watched Moana when the children were little and we all loved it. We wasn't expecting much given Disneys run of form but when it was release, it really was a surprise.
Some eight years later Moana 2 comes out. We were all excited to go and see the movie but I'm afraid it didn't live up to expectations. Let's face it, sequels rarely do. I can think of a handful which you can argue the case for, such as Empire Strikes Back, Back to the Future 2 and Aliens. While Moana 2 wasn't a bad movie it just didn't capture the magic of the first one. The story for me felt rushed. It had hints of the first story. The characters (new) lacked development and were generally annoying or didn't add anything. The animation is fantastic, no one can deny but it lacked depth and the music, this was the most disappointing thing. The first one had great songs such as, I am Moana and you're welcome to name a few. I can't actually remember one song from number two.
As my 11 and 9 year old girls said, it was okay just meh. I think that sums it up.
A lost opportunity but always difficult to follow the first.
