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.

Holly Hazelwood

Decades into the “throwaway sequel” game, Disney should at least be able to make a movie good enough for parents to suffer through the unbearable din of chattering children in packed movie theaters across the world.

Disjointed, messy, low stakes story; underwhelming songs that unsuccessfully imitate the first's masterful tunes; forgettable new characters. Feels like a 2000s direct-to-video sequel... Gorgeous animation is the only saving grace.

Continues the adventures of the feisty, sprightly Polynesian island girl with admirable aplomb, replete with the music, magic, myth-making and action that made Moana such an adored family fave...Does its duty very well and with great artistic industry.

Harmless, mildly engaging and amusing.

The modern equivalent to those middling Disney Straight-To-Home Video sequels of the 00s: a rehash of what came before with little to offer outside of diehard fans.
