Descendants 2 (2017)

The story is not interesting, and adding new character. it like they try to push the 4 main one down with this Uma character. The dance is not as sharp as the old one. The last scene where a dragon fight with an octopus, really? In many way, everyone know dragon would kill that octopus for lunch not like it has a very hard time fighting it. come on Disney, you guys really going down hill.

I was forced to watch this abomination of a film. It's not the most horrible thing ever, but it's SO BORING! I don't know what rubbed me wrong about this movie, but something in it just ticked me off so badly that I was crying, begging for the movie to end already (it's like 2 freaking hours long). Please, spare yourself the suffering. The plot goes nowhere and I had no idea what was going on half of the time. For example, there is a scene where a dog randomly starts talking for no reason and it lasts 10 minutes and goes nowhere, not to mention now you're stuck with a talking dog that has no place in the movie. Then there's something about the main girl going back to her original home, but her boring boyfriend does't want her to leave... or something. It DRAGSSSSS so much! It just never seems to end.The songs are all boring, forgettable and bland, not to mention their extreme simplicity (there is one song that consists of nothing but one horribly sounding note being played over and over again while the "singer" raps over it with absurd amounts of auto-tune being put over) Please, don't watch this movie, especially when there are the infinitely superior original movies, such as The Little Mermaid, Sleeping Beauty, and so on, to watch instead. This is coming from a 15 year-old girl. I know I'm the target demographic, but hey, I'm a weird girl who's into Stanley Kubrick and Prog Rock, so what do I know?

The first Descendants movie i thought was brilliant Kenny Ortega did an amazing job and i would almost say it was better than HSM. However the second movie really let the whole franchise down. The music was the best part out of the whole film. I didn't understand the story line why does it begin with ways to be wicked then just goes into the story line like nothing happened the whole story line was a shambles and i just didn't enjoy it.

The first was okay--cheesy, but still with good songs (except for the stinkin' RAP "Be Our Guest") and great acting, but this is horrible. No matter what director they get, Disney cannot make one sequel original. Here, Mal feels evil and is on the Isle of the Lost. She also tries to trick someone into eating a poisoned food to make him do what she wants. The baddies' kids try to steal the fairy godmother's wand. Someone turns into a dragon. Sound familiar? I don't get why Disney, which can make the most magical movies, has to make a replica of the first. And what's the point of the fairy godmother's wand, anyway? Why not keep Maleficent's staff? And wouldn't Uma want King Triton's trident? The acting is poor, if you'd even call it acting. It seems like the actors just memorized the lines and recited them blandly. Urusla, who is kind of a human-squid, should have squid-ish tentacles, but instead, she looks like rubber. Almost all CGI was poor. It seems these great actors are put to waste. Like another said, Cameron Boyce (Carlos) is amazing, yet is always in the background. And did you know that Booboo Stewart (Jay) was actually in X-men AND Twilight? Then they're in this rubbish. Oh, and also, though "It's Going Down" was a great song, Ben's part was HORRIBLE. He's a great singer, but it was mushy, and he looked too innocent.No, not everything is wrong with it. Though like someone else said, spelling "wicked" out loud would get you bullied, "Ways to Be Wicked" is catchy. China Anne McClain is a good singer. The CGI of the dragon is good, and I loved that Lonnie, Mulan's daughter, finally got to show of her fighting skills.And no, disliking this does not mean you are a Disney hater. Disney lovers don't love everything Disney. Instead, they treasure Disney, especially the classics, and know and can tell when something is different or not as special, like this.On the other hand, this is targeted toward kids, so they may enjoy it. That's why I'm giving it extra stars. In the end, great for kids under 8. Stinks for people that expect it to match the original or want CGI as good as the live-action Jungle Book or as good acting and character depth as Tangled. No one who expects the characters to be the same as they were in their original classics will be satisfied. So if you're over 8, skip this.
