Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis is Walt Disney Animation Studio's first musical film in which all of the voice actors do both the speaking and singing parts since Beauty and the Beast (1991).
- GoofsTiana is left-handed, but sometimes uses her right hand for writing and kitchen work. For much of European and American history, society considered using the left hand to be sinful or unnatural, so "lefties" often felt compelled to use the right hand in polite company.
- Quotes
Tiana: [She and Naveen are floating above trees by balloons] Voodoo? You mean to tell me all this happened because you were messing with the Shadow Man?
Prince Naveen: He was very charismatic!
Tiana: [groans] It serves me right for wishing on stars. The ONLY way to get what you want in this world is through hard work.
Prince Naveen: Hard work? Why... why would a princess need to work hard?
Tiana: Huh? Oh, I'm not a princess. I'm a waitress.
Prince Naveen: A waitress? Well no wonder the kiss did not work! You lied to me!
Tiana: I - I never said I was a princess.
Prince Naveen: You never said you were a w- a waitress! You were wearing a crown!
Tiana: It was a costume party, you spoiled little rich boy!
Prince Naveen: Oh, oh yes, oh ye-? Well, the egg is on your face, alright, because I do not have any riches!
Tiana: [shocked] What?
Prince Naveen: I am completely broke! Hahaha!
[branches begin popping the balloons]
Prince Naveen: Uh-oh...

I will start by saying I'm something of a traditionalist when it comes to Disney, I love the classics, I found some of the later offerings very disappointing, it was suggested I may like this one, I'm glad I listened, I really enjoyed it.
It's as if Disney took some of the greatest elements from its illustrious history, forged them together, and put a unique twist on them.
The visuals are great I thought, it's a skilled animation, it's bright, it's detailed, it flowed so well. Great music also.
The characters are a hoot, I love that Tiana is a smart cookie, she has the backstory, she's sassy, but she's smart, she's a somewhat different Disney Princess.
It's heaps of fun, I really liked the humour, it's funny, I also loved the villain, Doctor Facilier was a menacing figure, I loved the way his shadow operated independently.
8/10.
