Trailer: 


I keep saying I will watch this movie and without me knowing, it was almost seven years after its initial released🤡🤡🤡 Better late than never, they said ey? The thing is, one of the OST from this movie is my favorite songs even since it was released. Yeah, how dare me not watch the movie but listen to the song (in case you're wondering, it was How Far I'll Go by Alicia Cara).


As every animation I have ever watched, Moana also received big double thumbs up from me. I love everything about this movie from the beautiful sceneries to the comedic scenes and hilarious dialogues, it was so so so so great! Just like any other Disney princess, Moana is so likeable like you can't hate her. She had no fault. 


Her adventure to save her island and people is so  thrilling! I haven't watch much movies with water or sea setting and I was very such that something gonna pop out of the water and just attack on her boat. Yeah, it's not Jaws inspired movie but my brain seems like could not register that. Anyway, it was hilariously good when Moana finally found Maui and gonna haul him into her boat and took him to return Te Fiti's heart.


From there on, there was so much development for both Moana and Maui, and not to forget, Hei Hei! The underrated star of the show. The ending was somewhat a bit unexpected and weirdly, confusedly hilarious for me. Not gonna spoil it here but yeah, I found it somehow reaaaaally close to the creature we called woman. Like really. Is there some hidden message there? Haha.


Overall, I definitely am watching this again. And I know I will not get bored of this movie. Ending this with my fav song from Moana
