Moana 2

What to Know

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.

Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) If children of a certain age like this kind of kinetic fare, they're going to like this movie. It never stops, not for one second. Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review It's great fun for girls and boys, and the animation is really sweeping. Dec 12, 2024 Full Review Andrea Thompson Chicago Reader Much like the hermit crab who kicks things off by attempting to trade in his new shell for an ill-fitting larger one, there’s simply not enough to fill out Moana 2. Dec 11, 2024 Full Review Sarah Gopaul Digital Journal The film picks up in the second half largely because Moana and Maui are reunited, which invigorates the narrative; separate, their stories are still relevant, but less entertaining. Jan 20, 2025 Full Review Sean P. Means The Movie Cricket With a score of new songs, the voice cast, led beautifully by Cravalho, captures the doubt and determination Moana feels as she’s called to follow this epic quest. Rated: 3.5/4 Jan 18, 2025 Full Review Chris Sawin Bounding Into Comics Moana 2 somehow feels like a three-hour film crammed into an hour and 40 minutes. The animation is disappointing, the story is stretched well beyond its means, and the music is pure trash. Rated: 1/5 Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

I enjoyed watching it as much as my 3 children ages 11,9 and 1. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/25 Full Review David K Was there a plot? Did anyone get to care about the characters? At least in the first one there were songs you'd want to sing. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/25 Full Review santy This was such a good movie !
