Review of Encanto

Excellent that to have a Disney movie set in Colombia, and the animation was rich and beautiful. I think Mirabel's conflict is very identifiable for girls, not feeling like you have anything you're good at. I also liked that she felt like she was the "not pretty" sister, as most Disney princesses are very pretty and put a lot of pressure on girls. This emphasizes that that wasn't her most important feature.

However, the music felt pretty excessive and that it slowed the story down. There wasn't much of a plot. The resolution wasn't really explained, nor was the reason for the "conflict," (the magic going away), so the plot felt overall very unsatisfying.
