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.

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.

Onscreen, the details of this fabricated, composite mythology get a little murky. But squint your eyes against the specifics, and the odyssey tends to deliver a mood that fluctuates along a scale of benign to bright.

The excuse that it is "for children" isn't good enough. Kids also have the right to decent entertainment... [Full review in Spanish]

I love when kids’ movies subtly address colonization and teach children that ancestors never leave us and want to help us. And the music slaps!

It's a good follow-up. I fully enjoyed the movie. The music was superb and the story is great to follow. Hope they'll make a part three. 🙂

Great movie. Songs were not as good as in the 1st one, but didnt distract from the experience.
