Review of Encanto

Encanto (2021)
5/10
Absolutely stunning visually, weak plot
5 February 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Convulted with too many characters... too many songs that could have been 2 lines in the movie. That strong girl song was hard to watch "drip drip drip" my teeth breaking from cringe. I wasn't attached to any of the characters enough for the emotional payoff to hit very hard in the end (which it had the potential for). They made sure to tell us that the strong girl and the perfect girl were more than their gifts but then never showed us what that was.. shes...not...perfect all the time? She doesn't want to be strong all the time...

Bruno and the concept of foresight is always interesting...unfortunately a small part of the movie.
