Amazing ocean!

Rating: 10/10 (8 April 2017)

Palms, sand, warm ocean water, fragrant coconuts, colorful outfits, traditional dances and mythology of the peoples of Polynesia. All grown on the sheen of the scales "Little Mermaid" (1989), the magic of "Aladdin" (1992) and the legends of "Hercules" (1997) and all growing up on the phone call "Frozen" (2013) and the "Zootopia" (2016) Will conquer the joint creativity of the beloved creators of 2016 called "Moana".
With the support of a whole team of anthropologists, teachers, scientists, linguists, cultural experts and navigation specialists, the Disney creative union tells an amazing story based on the culture of the Polynesian people unknown outside the Pacific. In the center of the story is Princess Moana, the daughter of a tribal leader from the fictitious island of Motunui, which embodies thousands of Polynesian islands. She is chosen by the ocean to save her world and people from the ancient spell and death. And her heroic mission is fun, successful and easy, until the culprit of all ills, the demigod Maui, interferes with her. Well, or just a two-hundred-year-old offended man.
Magic and brightness, detailing and technique, concreteness and intelligibility. All the age categories are captivated by that fantasy, childish spontaneity and purity, which is hidden in the rationality of hidden images and meanings from adult directors: the dumb crab is full of shine, the nature that has become offended by consumers-people, the powerful, but infantile demigod, and the most Ordinary girl as a standard of overcoming fears and courage to swim against the current. However, not so much the iridescent childishness in the hearts of the creators makes the cartoon exciting and deep, how much an adult sense of proportion in their heads.
The disobedience of parental care and the pursuit of a dream are not in conflict, but in harmony with love and respect for the feelings of their ancestors and especially the advice of a wonderful grandmother. The acquired independence, wisdom, friendship and courage accompany the basic message - the preservation of nature. Computer graphics unobtrusively replaced by futuristic drawings in the good traditions of folk art of Polynesia. And when the next song would be superfluous even for the genre of the musical (which complements comedy, adventure and fantasy), one of the characters honestly and openly says, as if reading the viewer's thoughts: "If you start singing, I will definitely vomit!" For the company with such subtle irony, the natural hindrance of the unruly curly hair of the heroes, the play with the water and the awkwardness of Maui are simply amusing. The abundance of musical motifs and variety of songs are amazing. And admires the non triviality of the find in the form of hand-drawn tattoos: in general and mini-Maui in particular. Being located on the heart and moving all over the body of the carrier, he, like the conscience of his possessor, discourages that from stupidity, cowardice and betrayal.
Following the awards of the British Academy, Golden Globe and Oscar in 2017, Moana did not become the best animated film, giving way to the "Zootopia". However, for the viewer, it will definitely become a classic and synonymous with kindness, purity, courage and dreams for many years to come. Because this is the perfect cartoon of the perfect graphics, ideal characters, story, sound, music and send. The only negative, which for someone even a plus: after viewing everyone wants to make a tattoo.
