Critics Consensus

Riding high on a wave of stunning animation even when its story runs adrift, Moana 2 isn't as inspired as the original but still delights as a colorful adventure.

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

If children of a certain age like this kind of kinetic fare, they're going to like this movie. It never stops, not for one second.

It's great fun for girls and boys, and the animation is really sweeping.

Much like the hermit crab who kicks things off by attempting to trade in his new shell for an ill-fitting larger one, there’s simply not enough to fill out Moana 2.

The animation is lush and textured, and the characters overall are lively, but some characters and threads feel underdeveloped... youngsters will be satisfied with MOANA 2, but those young-at-heart might consider some parts more meh than Moana deserves.

Decider

Moana 2 inspires passable acceptance tinged slightly with disappointment. I wouldn’t steer anyone away from the movie, but it’d be wise to keep expectations in check.

Both the original and this movie end with the song "We Know the Way." Do you though, Disney? Do you really?

I loved it! My grandson, however, was cringing when another song came on.
