Moana 2016
#5
Was not that impressed. It looked great (of course) but I wonder why they made Maui so ugly. Couldn't they have made him look more like the Rock? And I wasn't grabbed by the songs. In particular the crab's song could have been cut. That whole sequence could have been shorter. It was a bit too video-gamey. And the idea that the islanders used to be voyagers but just gave it up was pretty silly. I did like the rooster.

On the other hand, the stuff Maui tells Moana about wayfinding was accurate - see the book Wayfinders by Wade Davis for a thorough and very interesting discussion. (Never reviewed it here because I only read that one section of it.)
