Encanto 2021

"we don't talk about this thing" proceeds with complete song and dance about this thing. Not the worst thing I've watched recently. The main protagonist is likeable, which is a hard thing to achieve these days it seems. I love the setting but wish the songs were more appropriate to the location this is set in. Speaking of songs, I can't stand musicals so the songs weren't for me. Especially since so many of the songs involving the main character slowing down time, which made me think she did have a power. Defeating the purpose of why she's special. I do however love the animation, and especially the design of this movie. It's one of the first animated movies I've seen that has a cartoony style and still have sub-surface scattering and even some ray tracing (especially when the weather girl is on screen). And the movements are never out of the realm of possibilities. The set and clothing designs are excellent. The whole thing still has that annoying mouth movement/facial expression that's been normalised by Pixar. I wish they'd do something different for a change.
