Wish Reviews
This was a very interesting take on a classic concept. At the end if the movie, it ties it to other fairy tale movies before it.
it was boring and unimaginative. There was like one good song song by the villain. I went in with the expectation that there was going to be some intriguing surprise. But no. The characters were flat, the magic was flat. the plot was flat. Honestly most of these wishes didn't need the king to grant them. They were quite mundane. The movie played out like someone trying to pass a deadline. I was not wowed.
A bit overhated but a solid watch
Disney was making a 100th anniversary movie and this is what they can come up with? Go watch Once Upon a Studio instead.
When I first watched the movie, I thought it was a decent watch, but not a favorite; 5-6/10. Enjoyed the Easter eggs, plot somewhat typical, but good to watch once. The cast did their part well with what they were given. Upon learning more of behind the scenes and rejected ideas for the film, my opinion of the movie changed. Wish was supposed to commemorate and celebrate Disney's history. After learning what could've been with Earendele aka "Starboy" being Asha's love interest and Queen Amaya being a villain as well, I can't see the movie the same way. The demo version of "At All Costs" should have its time to shine, and certainly would be as iconic as "A Whole New World" and "I See the Light." Queen Amaya could've been a twist villain with King Magnifico being a villain from the start, they could've blended modern and classic Disney, they could've had a duet. Making Asha "adorkable" is tiring and boring. I expected her to be more graceful like the older princesses, and the movie would have been beautiful in 2D animation. Disney could've had both their cute star and Starboy, the best of both worlds. The storyline and characters are not as memorable. I'm sorry, Disney, but you messed this one up big time. Once Upon a Studio has more heart than Wish. I prefer you redoing Wish instead of wasting time and money on remakes that are unnecessary. Creativity and originality is what has always made Disney. Take inspiration and make things your own. I wish Disney would do the 100th anniversary justice by making Wish the beautiful movie we all know it can be. I give this movie a 2/10.
Great story telling, I was surprised at how good this movie was, but really enjoyed it.
I was in love with the movie
My daughter loved it
Hardly the best from Disney, but far from the disaster some people make it out to be. Arianna Debose and Chris Pine are excellent, the songs feel instantly memorable (especially the villain song that I will never get out of my head) and the credits are almost as magical as Avengers: Endgame.
Many critique this movie, but I enjoyed it! It was light hearted, had a positive message, and some catchy songs! Plus, it gave tribute to old Disney animation! Definitely a must see if you’re a Disney fan!
The music is elite. They basically took Lin Manuel Miranda's formula for writing and copied it. The story is fun. The characters are likable. The ending was well foreshadowed and satisfying. It celebrates the 100 yes of Disney wonderfully. The after credits scene was a gem. I missed it the first several times watching it (my kids love it). They really needed to include the after credits scene earlier so everyone sees it. It ties the whole movie together even better.
daughter loved this. the little star character had so many cute expressions 😍 🌟
Songs were catchy though plot and pacing is a bit jarring at times. Overall a good Disney film for kids to enjoy that also honors its history of magic
Loved everything about this movie. My grandchildren loved it too.
Overall, the movie was good, but I don't recommend small children seeing it. I would hate to think that they actually think that someone can possess their wishes and destroy them. I think it was a little too violent for small children. But my friend and I being senior citizens Lol we enjoyed it.
it was it was interesting
My 8 year old daughter and I really enjoyed it! Better than I expected and a great mix of humor, meaning, and magic.
Poor sound quality. Not a very good story.
Great movie to take my granddaughter to. Enjoyable and relayed some good values.
Excellent musical score appreciate that the story line was doing right prevailed over evil.
