Title: The Princess and the Frog
Directors: Ron Clements and John Musker
Run Time: 95 minutes
Rated: G

Summary: All Tiana wants is to own a restaurant, but when she's convinced to kiss a frog that claims he is a prince she's in for a big surprise. She get turns into a frog! Now Tiana needs to find a way to get herself and the prince back to normal. Will she and the prince turn back into human? Will Tiana get her dream?

Why I watched this movie:

I watched this movie because my eldest sister is a huge Disney fan, especially the princess movies. I wanted to see it too. So we all decided to go see it the weekend it came out.

Likes:

  • I love the songs in this movie. They were catchy, cheerful (even the wicked ones sounded very upbeat), and wonderfully animated.I really enjoyed listening to them. The jazz music was a real hit too.
  • I think it was funny when Tiana and Prince Naveen were trying to catch a fly and they ended up in a ball with their tongues tied together. Haha!
  • I enjoyed watching Tiana on the screen. Her personality and her motivation were great! She was very beautiful too.
  • Ray (the firefly) was awesome! He was so funny (bad teeth and all) and very helpful.

Dislikes:

  • Charlotte was not a very well drawn character. Her face looked squished together and I think it was weird that she let Tiana and Prince Naveen get married when we know from the beginning that she was spoiled beyond belief and wanted to marry a prince.

Last minute thoughts: This was Disney's first African American princess movie and I thought it was great! I also think that they should make more hand drawn animated movies with music numbers. You can't go wrong with the classics!

Buy: The Princess and the Frog (Single Disc Widescreen)

Movie Rating: I give this movie 4 treasure chests!

I too would give this movie 4 treasure chests! It was very exceptional and I loved every minute of it.

That Prince Naveen is a total hunk, yes? Fans self. He was so cute playing jazz music. :D
