YALL
everyone who watched the movie...i know theres a lot of contoversy and mixed reviews of this movie. i personally loved the first 3 installments of descendants i had the song in that on repeat and though this is an unpopular opinion about this movie i personally think it was great setting aside the fact that the og cast wasnt in it(and i was a dove cameron fangirl at the time and still am).
the new cast has so much good chemistry and they all seem like nice people. though the plot couldve been better with less potholes i fell like many of the potholes in the movie could be theorized more to give predictions and i feel like the potholes where kind of intentional to intrigue the audience an dit did that for me.
*SPOILER*
For example one of the most speculated thing is the book theory about how the vks(uliana and her crew) wouldnt be able to open the book even if red and chloe didnt go back in time. a lot of things could have happened honestly...maybe someone else was trying to prank bridget and needed something from uliana to prank her and since they stopped uliana and she got detention or something they wouldnt have been able to do it which led to the prank never happening or it could be that red and chloe going back in time and interacting with these characters was already enough to alter the past events...maybe the prankster couldve been ella who changed her mind after she met red and chloe...the posibilities are endless.
i grew up watching the og descendants but also watching some of the actors in this movie in their own shows like malia in are you afraid of the dark and ruby in coop and cami ask the world etc. I feel like this movie should get a little more love and for tthe audience to be a litttle more open minded about the new concept.
Also the songs were great the actors were amazing singer though there couldve been room for improvement on some of the lyrics in some of the songs. And i still loved it though some of the songs were so zombies coded and kinda k pop coded...there were a few songs that gave descendants vibes though and yeah. thats basically it...great movie, cant wait for the next one because im intrigued and im liking it so far(still like the og better tho)but im willing to give it a shot.
