In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Blistering performances.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
So basically, the plot is that the heroes from Disney's animated features live in a (live-action) kingdom together and have confined the villains to an island. Both sides now have children, and the son of Beauty and the Beast wants to give the villains' children a chance. So, the question is whether or not the villains' children will choose a path different from that of their parents.It's an interesting idea, but I wish that they could've just gone all the way and referenced every hero and villain. I would've liked to see the genie. Nonetheless, Kristin Chenoweth carries the movie as Maleficent (the evil fairy from "Sleeping Beauty"). Man, that woman can perform! An OK movie, nothing special.
I know to keep my expectations moderated before going into any TV movie. Especially something that is targeted towards a young audience. As such, I knew to expect a certain level of cheese and corn in this movie. But, being that it is still obviously a "Disney" production, I did have some expectations. What I got from watching this movie.. was nothing but a mass of disappointment at the Disney corporation and what they think of our children today. They took iconic Disney villains and robbed them of almost all of their dignity and reduced them to the level of a running gag and a cliché. The concept of featuring a plot and story around the children of these characters does have merit and with a well written, semi-mature plot, could have been worthy of a full release.. which is not the case here. The dialogue and plot seem to have been written by a child in middle school. Many of the costumes and outfits for the characters would be better placed at the bottom of a thrift shop bargain bin. How can Disney put their well-known heroes and villains in crowns that are obviously made out of plastic and tin foil!? Some of these actors may have some creds when it comes to acting.. but almost none of them can sing or dance. Some songs are so badly lip synched that you can see the actor "singing" the words before you hear them. Disney please, PLEASE stop thinking that just because something is made for kids.. it has to appear and sound like it was done by KIDS. I would not recommend this movie to anyone except as something to amuse yourself with when you're drunk or to entertain yourself by mocking it.
I really loved this movie. It was interesting and had a modern take on famous Disney villains. I really loved the characteristics used in this movie it was visually entertaining to follow the descendants and their story and the difficult things they go through. I personally really loved this movie it had a great plot, great CGI and its a lot better that high school musical. I recommend watching this amazing film it's really entertains and good.
Descendants is a movie based on the children of four major, evil, villainous characters of Disney, and had great potential. However, it the worst movie I have ever seen. There was no development of all the things that could have happened, the great story plot that it could have been. Most of the story becomes very lame and boring 'school' experiences the villains' children have, and is uninteresting throughout. There could have been huge schemes and subplots to make this complicated, but it was basic and dull, like mostly all movies that air on Disney Channel. Again, for some reason, it seems that the shows and movies on Disney Channel are all strangely lame. The character choices for the villains' children was terrible. Only the Aladdin one was suitable, and no one else. The daughter of the evil witch from Snow White was very annoying, and so was the other boy. A bad character choice, an extremely boring storyline, and terrible songs for the most part. *4/10*
