I love the first movie, which is why I had such high expectations for the sequel, but what was my surprise to discover that it was a disaster. In the first one, the musical numbers feel very natural, in this one they feel very forced. The first gave us the opportunity to imagine the story and this one tries to explain it, leaving argumentative gaps. How is it possible that Cher is the grandmother if she is Meryl Streep's age? Why do they call her out at the beginning of the film if in the story she doesn't do anything bad? The sequel ruins the first film, and that's something you don't see every day. Without a doubt, a bad and boring story when not even Abba's songs save it. I really don't understand the positive reviews.

I am into documentaries and I have watched several of them on Disney+, but this one felt all over the place. It was pretty boring and it seemed like it did not have a specific direction. They tried to show us the evolution of Mickey Mouse through time, but at the same time, they seemed lost about the true meaning of their character or the message they want Mickey to send. In the end, we feel like we have left out something, because the documentary does not show any moral o lessons learned in 100 years of history. I am sure this could have turned better. It did not do justice to the most beloved character of their company and it showed that not even Disney employees comprehend Mickey Mouse. Also, the animation at the end is medium quality at its best. How is it possible that the hand-drawn animation that made them famous isn't even their forte these days? This all just proves that Walt Disney Company is having an identity crisis, as we all have witnessed it.
