Aside from being visually stunning in IMAX 3D, I’m pretty disappointed with this film, especially as a tribute to the late legend James Earl Jones. I had higher expectations for this one than Moana 2, but, just like that film, the story here felt entirely pointless. I thought this idea had potential, but it wound up being exactly what everyone feared it would be.
Even Lin-Manuel Miranda’s music in it is fairly mediocre, which, combined with “The Scuttlebutt,” has me…

My favorite part of the movie, however, was the bad guy, who was like if the kid who wore a suit to high school became a supervillain. I seriously laughed at almost every…
