Critics Consensus

The warmth of traditional Disney animation makes this occasionally lightweight fairy-tale update a lively and captivating confection for the holidays.

The Princess and the Frog will certainly be remembered years later as not only a pioneer Disney movie, but also one that allowed audiences to never let go of their dreams and that with love anything is possible, no matter your age or color.

The backgrounds are beautifully drawn. There are sunny days in the French Quarter, spooky nights among live oaks hung with Spanish moss, and a rousing denouement at the Mardi Gras.

Rated: 3.5/5

Deep Focus Review

The Princess and the Frog represents a welcome return for Disney and a beacon of cartoon light that the company should aspire to with every new effort.

The narrative is largely dull and the representation ranges from overdue to problematic. While the film still has a charm, specifically in its visuals, the overall viewing experience is more average than anything else.

The Princess and the Frog is indeed good-not-great, as its considerable merits ... are weighed against a circuitous, unsatisfying plot.

A very good spin on a classic fairy tale turned into a Roaring 20s fever dream romance that is thrilling, sweet, and beautiful with a threatening villain played by the spectacular Keith David. Disney never disappoints when they play to their strengths, and this movie is full of the strengths Disney always should play to. With a riveting cast starring Anika Noni Rose, Bruno Campo, Jim Cummings, and, of course, Keith David, the movie shone as brightly as Evangeline and Ray did.

I loved it. It was a great movie. Louis the crocodile was SO GOOD and is probably the best Disney talking animal. It's a good movie if you like heartfelt movies and a good movie if you like animation and a good movie if you like romance-it basically checks all the boxes for being a good movie, whatever you like to watch.

This movie is pretty good, from it's 2D animation to its story to it's music and characters. It is a pretty fun time, but don't except to see Tiana in human form for a lot of the movie.
