I was looking forward to this cute animation after seeing the trailer, and hoping for it to be something like Coco. Well, it’s not, in case you are wondering. To be honest, this movie is kinda boring to me. Why am I still putting it in the A-league? Because I assume the main audience will be kids and their parents.

First of all, I’m sure kids are going to love it for the “magic” — all the singing, and the vibrant animation. Parents are probably shaking their heads now. Another one of those, huh? What makes it into the A-league as a kids’ animation is its story. The story is actually more educational for parents than kids. There’s a little short animation before the movie started in my theater, and they go with the same theme: parenting.
I won’t say more in case of spoilers, but parents, if you have a toddler, take them to see this movie and it will remind you why you love them so much.

Plot
Encanto tells the tale of an extraordinary family — the Madrigals — who live hidden in the mountains of Colombia, in a magical house, in a vibrant town, in a wondrous, charmed place called an Encanto. The magic of the Encanto has blessed every child in the family with a unique gift from super strength to the power to heal — every child except one, Mirabel. But when she discovers that the magic surrounding the Encanto is in danger, Mirabel decides that she, the only ordinary Madrigal, might just be her exceptional family’s last hope.

Movie Watching Must Have!!
I go feral for this app. I love it so much and I wish everyone knew about it and used it. It is incredibly useful and I would be devastated if this app ever disappeared. Things I love: 1) the pee times! It’s so handy to know the best time to go and then read the synopsis of what’s happening while I’m gone. I never have to worry about missing the good bits! 2) knowing if there is a post-credits scene or not. This might be my fav feature because I would have missed out on some pretty critical scenes if it weren’t for RunPee. 3) the movie review and viewer rankings. This info has made me watch some movies that I normally wouldn’t and it’s nice seeing things outside of my usual scope. 4) that it’s a small family run business. I love shopping small and it really does feel like I’m part of the RunPee family! If you reach out to them, Dan will personally respond to you and he is so warm and helpful. GET THIS APP AND THEN SUBSCRIBE! It is absolutely worth it and you’ll be using it again and again!
