As a person who does not remember the first movie much, I can tell you this sequel helps continue the story. Im not sure why others complain there was too many songs? It wasnt that bad and Ive seen worse. I think its also part of how Giselle is, shes a fairy tale of course she has to sing in this world ALL the time. Its disney. The songs were super catchy and I liked love power. The visuals, designs and effects were spot on. I loved the squirrel, he looked so adorable. I give props to the old actors for doing such an amazing job again, and lets not mention the animation! Truly amazing! Overall, the movie makes you feel super bubbly and happy about magic. It was a good experience and it doesnt hurt to try it out.
