✦AI Summary
Disney's live-action remake of Moana debuted with a disappointing $95 million global box office performance. Despite positive audience scores, the film faced harsh critical reviews for being too similar to the original animated version.
This latest Moana brings Dwayne Johnson back as the demigod Maui and introduces Catherine Lagaʻaia as the adventuring Polynesian princess. Despite praise for Lagaʻaia, the film set sail on a wave of dismal reviews from critics for being essentially a shot-for-shot remake of the original.
