I honestly came into this movie with high hopes, because the original is one of my favorite movies of all time. I knew it wouldn't be *as* good, but was hoping it would still be fun to watch, maybe have remixed versions of the songs, or something. But as the movie went on, it got worse and worse, and honestly it's one of the worst movies I've ever watched...
The pacing was fucking terrible. Most of the scenes and lines were 1:1 with the original, but sped up like crazy. The cuts were so fast, and they didn't leave a single section of silence for the characters to think or process during a conversation. The characters dialogue was almost overlapping with each other because of how fast the back and forth cuts were. The movie was so fast paced that it was hard to pay attention to or process anything.
Next up, the singing was SO BAD!! Idk how they released it like this😭 The characters LITERALLY had multiple voice cracks while singing. SERIOUSLY. All of the songs were emotionless, quiet, and bad. The whole movie just felt so numb compared to the original.
Now for the things they DID change... First off, Moui... Despite being played by the same actor as the original, Moui in the remake was the worst fucking character in the movie😭 In the original, he was egotistical in a funny, sort of cocky way. In the remake, he's egotistical in an aggressive and hostile way. He's such a fucking asshole, and really annoying... They also changed some jokes, but the new jokes were said in a really forced, awkward way.
Despite coming in with high hopes, there was not a single thing I got out of this movie. It was so difficult to get through, and I can't believe Disney actually released this. This is now a permanent stain on their portfolio, and if I were Disney, I'd be embarrassed...
