Moana 2 (2024) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A middling second chapter not sailing that far
Disney animation film “Moana 2” is a middling second chapter compared to its promising predecessor, and that is a big disappointment for all of us. Sure, it looks as terrific as you can expect from any decent Disney animation these … Continue reading
