Encanto 3D Movie Review

Written By: Adolph Vega

3D

The 3-D aspect of Encanto is well done yet it could have been better. The movie definitely benefits from being in 3D as it looks vibrant in 3D. A few key scenes use 3D depth to make in the scenes more intense. During the movie several characters have musical scenes and these musical scenes really shine in 3D. You get some occasional 3D pop outs but it’s fairly rare outside of some random things. Maybe it was my theater but I felt like the 3D should have been stronger and more prominent. Don’t get me wrong I did enjoy the 3D aspect of Encanto but I just felt that it was a little subdued. I imagine that 3D fans will be very happy with the 3D in Encanto. In conclusion Encanto looks very nice in 3D and at times it can look incredible.

Final Verdict: Good 3D

Movie

Encanto is the spanish word for charm (among other things). Charming is a perfect way to describe this magical animated movie from Disney.

The story of Encanto revolves around the character of Mirabel. Mirabel lives with her family in a magical house in Columbia. Mirabel’s family has various magical abilities. Sadly Mirabel doesn’t have any magical abilities. Suddenly the magical powers begin to disappear from the house and the family and Mirabel starts to investigate. The story is of Encanto is not your typical Disney fairytale. The movie doesn’t have a villain and the many elements of the story are never fully explained. I actually really like that some of the movie is left to mystery instead of being explained away. Encanto is a unique movie that has excellent pacing. I loved all of the characters in Encanto. These characters have depth and are have great personalities on screen. The movie has a real heart to it and it feels genuine. All the voice acting is top notch and the dialogue between characters is well done and it feels natural. The humor in this movie is also well done. The comedy has a light touch but it’s really well implemented into the story. Encanto is a fantastic movie and is top tier Disney.

Encanto is a musical with many original songs. This musical element is a big part of the movie and overall it’s well handled. I enjoyed all the musical scenes when they appeared on screen. That being said I don’t feel like this movie has any stand out song. It’s all songs are sung beautifully with wonderful visuals but I can’t remember any of the songs a day after watching the movie. Frozen had “Let it go”, Little Mermaid had “Under The Sea”, Beauty and the Beast has “Be Our Guest”, Moana had “Your Welcome” , Aladdin has “Friend Like Me” and sadly Encanto doesn’t have an equivalent to any of those awesome songs. Considering that this movie has so many songs it’s disappointing that none of them truly pop. This song issue might be the only weakness of Encanto.

The visuals of Encanto are truly gorgeous. All characters look distinct from one another so it’s easy to tell them apart. It’s all so colorful and beautifully animated. Encanto is truly a feast for the eyes. I love how the characters look realistic yet stylized. I imagine that one day Encanto will be seen as a fantastic showcase movie to show off future televisions or monitors.

In closing Encanto is one of my favorite movies of 2021. Encanto is a fun emotional movie that feels original. Encanto isn’t a perfect movie but it’s pretty close.

Final Verdict:

9/10- Editors Choice Film Award

Simply put Jungle Cruise is gorgeous in 3D. Disney really delivers and this film has many noteworthy pop outs and depth based 3D effects. The few scenes with waterfalls really make good use of 3D depth. The movie begins with a cold open panning view of the amazon and it looks spectacular in 3D. Many times CGI snakes would pop out of the screen in fun manner. The 3D really complements the visuals and makes for a more compelling visual narrative. Many times I felt like I was in the lush jungle with the characters as I felt so engrossed into the visuals because of the wonderful 3D. Most of the movie is seen in a diorama sorta effect and it looks like you are looking through a widow into the movie. The 3D helps to establish the various shots and scenes. The 3D is not perfect as some darkly lit scenes look off because of the 3D. I do wish that it had a little more pop outs. Honestly you are doing yourself a disservice by watching this movie in 2D. The 3D really helped me enjoy this movie and I imagine that some of my enjoyment would be muted by watching Jungle Cruise in 2D. You need to watch Jungle Cruise in 3D.

Movie

Jungle Cruise is Disney’s latest theme park ride turned into a feature length film. In some ways it resembles other adventure movies like Indiana Jones and the Tomb Raider movies, but in many ways it has its own style that makes it unique.

The story of Disney’s Jungle Cruise is fairly strait forward but is very engrossing. You follow Dr. Lily Houghton (Emily Blunt) who travels to the Amazon in search for a tree that can magically cure any illness. Lily hires boat captain Frank (Dwayne Johnson) to help her navigate the amazon river. Lily isn’t the only person who is searching for this magical tree. This magical tree is also known to curse people who dare search for it. You will have to watch the movie to learn what happens to Lily and Frank during this adventure down the amazon river.

Jungle Cruise is a joy to watch. This movie is pure escapist fun. I loved the back and forth between Lily and Frank. Emily Blunt and Dwayne Johnson have a real chemistry on screen and their banter is well written and it feels natural. This movie was perfectly cast and I love all the main characters. I loved the cornball sense of humor that this movie has. The various action scenes are thrilling and are well executed. The visuals are well done and rarely did I question any of the special effects. I have very few if any complaints. I suppose that some of the lore could have been better explained. I do feel like this movie has some minor plot holes. The movie has no depth to it. Any issues that I have with this movie are extremely minor and overall I found myself extremely entertained and not caring about any of its flaws. Jungle Cruise is a delightful movie.

Jungle Cruise is a charming and goofy movie that I loved. It’s so rare that you can find a family friendly adventure movie that is this good. When the movie ended I had a huge smile on my face. I haven’t felt this happy in the theaters in a long time. Jungle Cruise is live action Disney at its best.
