While this reviewer tends not to dole out personal details while reviewing a movie, on rare occasions I can’t help myself. I attended a preview of the sequel Moana 2 with a three-year-old. Yes, she is definitely a bit young for this picture, but did enjoy large chunks of the first one, particularly the songs, and tolerated the more chilling aspects of its tense climax. So, she came along for this one.
This follow-up follows the leads on a new, but in some ways similar adventure...
