Descendants: The rise of red

Exactly when the movie seemed to redeem itself, like it was finally heading on a better path- it abruptly ended. I understand the writers might want to leave an open window for a potential 2nd movie, but I think the plot could have been worked with in order to give us something else. There are thousands of ways they could have made this, and the result certainly wouldn't have been this quirky, edgy failed attempt to what could have been otherwise an interesting film. They somehow created sparkling details- the atmosphere, the confrontatione, even the characters were interesting enough, and I adore Red, I see pontential in her character development. But it totally lacked what the original series had: good songs, and the magic that overall glued all the other elements together.

The songs have absolutely nothing near the vibes of the original series. I would rather say all the songs sounded like badly timed pop songs. All the essence from the original series- gone.

This gets 1 higher mark purely for how beautiful they made Wonderland look, and even Merlin Academy.

Like everybody else, I had higher expectations. Like Red & Chloe, I wish I had a time-turning clock, so I could give this movie a higher time-ranged, and a not-so-rushed plot.
