Moana: culturally important, but is it worth reimagining?

Make way for our review of Disney's live-action reimagining of Moana, with special guest Justin Hill. Starring Catherine Laga’aia and Dwayne Johnson, Moana follows the adventurous, strong-willed daughter of a Polynesian village chief who sets sail to save her island. Justin and Tim go beyond the reef to discuss everything from how significant and beautiful the Polynesian culture representation is to the divisive discourse about this film even existing. From Laga'aia's star-making performance to Johnson's potential miscasting, as well as the wigs, CGI, music and action, Tim and Justin leave no coconut unopened in an in-depth conversation for any fan or foe of this controversial remake.More Popcorn: Listen to Justin Hill Plus OneDoes Disney’s Snow White have too many princess problems?Does Disney's live-action Mulan live up to the original animation?Know someone who loves movies?
