Might not have been top tier but definitely a fun and intense watch! Loved the monster designs and the acting and suspense was great! Only real critique is wishing there were more answers and perhaps a little more flesh to the plot/characters, but overall not a bad watch at all! Quite thoroughly enjoyed it!

Being a live action Disney prequel, I did not go into this movie with high hopes. However, I was quite pleasantly surprised by a solid storyline and unique, catchy songs. Not sure about the reviews calling the songs forgettable, this soundtrack was something I haven't heard from Disney before and I found that refreshing. Visually stunning, I feel they improved alot from the live action Lion King, adding more expression and visual diversity to their characters. The movie may have been predictable at times but it is supposed to be legible to children so that is to be expected. I feel alot of the 1 star comments have, in fact, forgotten that it is still a kids movie. As an adult I still found it wonderful but I feel it can be forgiven for some of the things people are dragging it for.

Incredibly tense film, my chest was tight with anxiety the entire time. Character had the whole family yelling at the TV with a variety of her decisions but that's to be expected from the horror franchise. The sound track adding tension and remained in the background, not overpowering the scenes. Characters were done wonderfully, the bad guy was unsettling from the very first interaction. Real edge of your seat thriller, full of suspense and phenomenal acting.
