Watched this on Friday. Overall solid, but it was so close to being great.
+ I loved that this one felt like a journey. Moana travels to multiple islands, dealing with adversaries in each location and along the way.
+ No romance needed in this one.
+ Absolutely gorgeous. It's hard to say whether Zootopia or Moana looked better. I'd probably go with Moana just because of the locale and the water effects > fur effects.
- While the songs were strong, none of them really stuck to me like something those catchy Lion King or Aladdin tracks. Doesn't stack up to Let It Go.
- Pacing issues, probably due to the journey aspect of the movie. There was a decent amount of time where there wasn't too much happening. I don't remember the specifics, I just remember flipping from engaged to bored quite a few times.
- That chicken. A little overdone.

I wish they could find a way for the first version to flow into the reprise smoothly in one track.Other version is better
