SincereFinest disgusting, overrated, pointless
Iseerphia All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
hyperninja-15673 They really did a bad job wit this! First off all, "LOL WHAT ARE THE TIME PERIODS THE DISNEY MOVIES THE CHARACTERS ARE FROM ARE?" Like computers? cellphones? Beauty and the Beast took place in 1700's france. They most certainly did not have that there. Secondly the whole be yourself,don't follow the crowd bs has been done death. Also if i wanted to watch a movie wit Belle,Cruella,Sleeping beauty,the evil queen or Jafar i'd watch the ACTUAL movie they are from. Not some movie about their stupid kids. The preformence from certain characters was just off for that character, Cruella in this was so mediocre. If you want to show your kid a Disney movie show them one that is not there (preferably Beauty and the Beast,Aladdin,101 Dalmatians, Snow White,Mulan or anyother movie that ANY of the Disney characters are from).
Arcanna Jensen I know to keep my expectations moderated before going into any TV movie. Especially something that is targeted towards a young audience. As such, I knew to expect a certain level of cheese and corn in this movie. But, being that it is still obviously a "Disney" production, I did have some expectations. What I got from watching this movie.. was nothing but a mass of disappointment at the Disney corporation and what they think of our children today. They took iconic Disney villains and robbed them of almost all of their dignity and reduced them to the level of a running gag and a cliché. The concept of featuring a plot and story around the children of these characters does have merit and with a well written, semi-mature plot, could have been worthy of a full release.. which is not the case here. The dialogue and plot seem to have been written by a child in middle school. Many of the costumes and outfits for the characters would be better placed at the bottom of a thrift shop bargain bin. How can Disney put their well-known heroes and villains in crowns that are obviously made out of plastic and tin foil!? Some of these actors may have some creds when it comes to acting.. but almost none of them can sing or dance. Some songs are so badly lip synched that you can see the actor "singing" the words before you hear them. Disney please, PLEASE stop thinking that just because something is made for kids.. it has to appear and sound like it was done by KIDS. I would not recommend this movie to anyone except as something to amuse yourself with when you're drunk or to entertain yourself by mocking it.
Pepsi . I really loved this movie. It was interesting and had a modern take on famous Disney villains. I really loved the characteristics used in this movie it was visually entertaining to follow the descendants and their story and the difficult things they go through. I personally really loved this movie it had a great plot, great CGI and its a lot better that high school musical. I recommend watching this amazing film it's really entertains and good.
Reno Rangan This is a great concept, I don't know why Disney did not turn it into a theatrical film. As per the television standards, this film succeeds from all the aspects. The casting was good, but the focus was not distributed equally. May be they kept it for the sequels, in each to tell everyone's tale as the centre. So this is about the descendants of the greatest villains of Disney's fairy tales. They all got admitted to the Auradon Prep located near to their banished land. A chance to follow their own path, particularly to cut off bad influences of their parents. But would they accept the offer and make it work or there any agenda to avenge for the past are the remaining parts.It's a musical like any fairytale. But average tracks. The performances were good, even the graphics are very acceptable. So colourful and visually appealing. I think this kind of trend began with the recent success of 'Maleficent'. So you must not expect the moral values, particularly I'm saying it for the parents. Because, this is about the villains and their children, so the majority of the film leans on the negative factors. But as usual, all ends well, if you consider that a message or learning point for your children.Directed by 'Hocus Pocus' filmmaker. I was looking forward to watch it since it came out. Finally, I saw it and enjoyed it, but not the great film. The children's would love it, especially those who are familiar with the characters and its origin. Surely lot to expect, but I advise to keep your expectation low to benefit maximum. I have heard, they are already making the second film, which is due later this year. So I hope this time I watch it on the time.6/10
