I will only say: It is true Walt Disney movie

Rating: 9/10 (24 January 2017)

I don't know about the rest of people writing reviews here, but I am older generation of "kids" :) I remember when Disney was at his prime, and their movies ware fun, entertaining, full of joy and good singalong songs. For a long time, Disney was not that...new-generation directors, storytellers, cartoon artists and many others lost touch with old traditional good movies. They experimented with different styles of telling stories, but there was not successful in that, and Disney lost that charm that it had. This movie returned me my young self, with all the songs, breathtaking and funny moments. You go through roller-coaster of emotions from beginning to the end of movie, and it is so perfectly composed into one great unity.
I agree, there ware some songs and tones of movie that ware kinda out of place, but you "survive" it, and already in next scene, you forgot about it, and you can enjoy in new incredible views that this movie provides.
When I first heard of main casting, I was a little skeptical of "The Rock" Dwayne Johnson, because, I was under the impression that Hollywood is pushing him into a lot of movies, just to earn more money, and this was one of them. BUT, although he is GREAT actor (proven him self a lot of times), he was PERFECT for this part. He is "Maui", he was so merged with that character, you can envision him in movie.
As for the technical aspect of animation, there can only be words of praise and great-job-done! Water, hair, colors, hand-body and rest of movement ware so good done, that it could be said it is lifelike.
All in all, I love that Disney decided to return to it's roots, and brought us warm-cliché-loving movies that we all appreciate and need. There are new generation kids that need this kind of movies, because, we are drowning in too much reality shows, dramas, tragedy's and shallow-minded "comedies". For me, a great movie is the one that is re-watchable again and again, and whenever it comes to TV, you sit and watch it again, and not the movies that after once watched, you never come back and watch it again. This one goes to RE-WATCHABLE category. Thank you Disney.
