Well-crafted but slightly disappointing movie

Rating: 7/10 (28 January 2017)

It is a well-crafted movie from Disney that introduced some Polynesian culture to me. The whole story line is standard, but there were some humorous scenes here and there which kept me very engaged.
There are lots of songs in the movie. It might be a trend from Frozen since both have a princess as the leading character. However, I am a little disappointed about the quality of the songs, especially considering the involvement of Lin-Manuel Miranda who created Hamilton, a masterpiece.
I am little confused about the ability of the ocean. It is not consistent at all. It left me wondering why doesn't the ocean directly spray water all over the Te Ka?
