Disney’s Wish is a Masterpiece; Finally, a Movie for Girls Whose Dads Said No Sometimes
Forgive the late review, It took me a while to process all these feels
Hey there, folks! It’s Billly here, back again with another hot take on last month’s biggest blockbuster film, Disney’s latest magical masterpiece, Wish. Now I know what you’re thinking – how can a movie about a boring old wish-granting king possibly hold up against classics like Frozen or Moana? Well, let me tell ya, skeptics, you couldn’t be more wrong! This flick is not just a heartwarming tale of friendship and self-discovery, but also a much-needed commentary on the state of our world today. That’s right, folks. Wish isn’t just for kids anymore; it’s for us adults who remember when our parents said no to Star Wars merch or that expensive pair of sneakers.
Now, I get it. Some critics are trashing Wish for its supposedly “dumb” plot or “janky” animation. But come on, guys. We’ve seen far worse! And besides, Wish isn’t about flashy effects or mind-bending plots. It’s about relating to its heroine, Asha, a spunky gal who doesn’t take any BS from anyone. She’s got brains, she’s got beauty, and most importantly, she’s got brown skin. Yes, folks, we finally have a Disney princess who doesn’t look like every other damn white girl in the franchise! Plus, her multiracial squad of misfits – a bunch of forgettable yet diverse zoomers, joined by an adorable glowing star – adds so much inclusion to the classic fairy tale formula. Together, these unlikely buddies embark on an epic quest to free all the wishes trapped by the evil King Magnifico (yes, that’s his name), who only grants some wishes based on what HE thinks is good. Sound familiar, anyone? Dad?
But fear not, fellow disillusioned youths! Asha and company band together to teach him a lesson and remind us all that wishes are meant for everyone, not just the privileged few good kids out there. And along the way, they find out that sometimes, the best thing you can do is believe in yourself rather than rely on someone else to make your dreams come true. So grab some popcorn and tissues, ’cause this one’s gonna hit close to home for anyone who ever wished their parent had just given in once in a while. Trust me, you won’t regret giving Wish a chance. It may not revolutionize animated films like Elemental did, but it’ll definitely warm your cold, hard hearts and show young girls that they too can rule the world…err, kingdom! Girl power!
