BrentonThe Princess and the Frog Review

Finally! A Disney animated film that is feministic!
Not that there haven't been a few and not that I necessarily fault the Disney classics for the flat portrayal of women.
But still, this movie is a gem! With real life characters who happen to be in a fairy-tale-esque setting.
The musical numbers are treated well and the supporting characters are all charming. It was also very funny.
I'd recommend this film for anyone and for any age.

I really want to see this film,especially as it's got a new twist on the traditional story - very attractive African American girl as the princess, great musical score and some funny new characters. It's a nice change from the usual animated films out recently with adult themes some kids don't understand.
Cheers!
