Moana's live-action version is a remake of the original animation with real actors, sets, and some computer-generated images. The first Moana movie was released in 2016 and told the story of Moana, the daughter of a Polynesian chief, and her ocean adventure with a powerful demigod named Maui. In the new version, Dwayne Johnson, who voiced Maui in the original film, plays the same character, while 19-year-old Australian-Samoan actress Catherine Laga'aia plays Moana. Some film critics are not happy with this new version. Peter Bradshaw from The Guardian called it 'a sufficient but pointless and dull live-action remake.' Clarisse Loughrey from The Independent called it 'a waste of everyone's time and talent.' Other critics have more positive views. Owen Gleiberman from Variety called it 'a live-action remake that overcomes the remake blues - it's actually better than the original.' David Rooney from The Hollywood Reporter called it 'captivating family entertainment that deserves to find an audience.' Some critics questioned whether Disney should continue to make live-action versions of their popular animated films. Others compared the new Moana to the original, looking at its songs, characters, story, and visual effects. Did you know? Live-action remakes involve re-filming the original animated movies with real actors and sets, making the film look more realistic and alive. However, some critics think that these remakes can lose the spirit of the original films. Moana's live-action version is designed for both kids and adults, with adventure, action, and emotional moments. The film's visual effects are also very impressive. But it's interesting to think about how the original animation is different and what changes were made while watching the film. Have you seen Moana's live-action version?
