The highs and lows of The Princess & the Frog.

A cute movie

I recently purchased the DVD for this movie and let me tell you that it was a pleasure to see a hand drawn animated film for a change instead of all this stupid 3D animation that Disney does now instead of what they are really good at. Here is my highs and lows of PATF.

Highs

Great animation

The relationship were cute and funny especially Tiana & Naveen’s relationship.

The music is jazzy although I don’t like jazz music whatsoever .

The plot was easy to follow

A funny movie

Lows

The villain was terrible (sorry guys but I hated the way he died it was pathetic).

The ending was a bit rushed.

The plot was way too similar to Swan Princess as we have a prince turned into a frog and in the Swan Princes a princess gets turned into a swan and fake princess is suppose to marry the prince, whereas in PATF fake Naveen is trying to marry Charlotte.

Otherwise than that I did enjoy the movie and I would watch it again. But you cannot beat The Little Mermaid, Aladdin and others.

I’ll give it an 8/10

If you love Swan Princess,The Little Mermaid then you will love this.

ForsakenMoon19 I will agree that Tianna shouldn't have been turned into a frog, seeing as how the curse was never meant for her and she wasn't a real princess!!! I do however love the villian but I'll agree it was pathetic how he died at the end, that was too rushed!! And I also felt differently about the ending as you did, I felt like it dragged on from the firefly's death scene to the wedding and then the parade in the city!!! I would have perferred Tianna stayed human throughout or at least became human again when the villian transformed her, and then kissed Naveen!!! Her kiss of true love should've been what broke the spell!!! Either than all this I do love the movie!!!:D

kiraragirl200 I loved the way Shadowman died, he was being dragged into hell.

LisaForde Ok

princesslullaby I give the movie a 5/10.

Takuya Agree with you and the way Dr Facilier died was lame and i liked him as a villain othervise

glelsey I also thought Facilier's deaths was too quick and simple. I loved him as a villain throughout the rest of the movie but the way he died just made him look weak. And yes, I'd have liked the ending to have not gone past so quickly. It was good of you to put jazz music as a high, despite it not being your personal taste. You have been very open-minded about this so kudos! :) I must admit, I prefer this movie to The Little Mermaid by quite a lot (I liked The Little Mermaid, but it didn't feel particularly special to me). I'm having a hard time comparing it to Aladdin; could be on par with that for me. But that's just my opinion; I think what you said about "if you like those movies you'll like this" is a fair statement. And probably true for most people! Anyway, good analysis. :)

faya27 I too, thought the ending was rushed. Facilier's death made him weak and made me feel sorry for him. When the bad guy gets defeated, we're supposed to feel a catharsis that s/he got what they deserved; not feel sorry for them. The plot was a string full of cliches. I understand that John Lasseter (who was the executive producer of the movie) doesn't like any Disney movie that was made when Eisner used to rule the Disney Company and tried to forget that those movies existed but we the audience, remember fondly of the Disney Renaissance and can't forget about them. I got The Little Mermaid vibes from the scene when Naveen made a deal with Dr. Facilier the same way Ariel did with Ursula. My siblings complained that Louis was a rip-off of Pumbaa and Naveen looked too much like Eric. Not that there's anything wrong with borrowing stuff from past Disney films, but I felt that unlike the other Disney Princess movies, The Princess and the Frog didn't bring anything brand new to the table.

My List of Favorite PATF Characters

posted by missvantassel

this movie is one of my favorite disney films so here's my ranking of the characters I like or dont like, please enjoy! =)

Lawrence

this guy is a jerk but honestly i cant blame him entirely, he spent his life being put down and used by others so i kinda understand his anger and I'm sorry he made bad decisions but yeah, he wasnt a good friend to naveen of course.

Tiana

*waits for torches and pitch forks from tumblr tiana fans* yea guess what, I'm not a big tiana fan. at one point I was, I thought she was pretty and classy and cool but now I find her boring and overrated. she's the first black princess,...
