Hi.

Welcome to my site! My name is Andrea Thompson, and I’m a writer, editor, and film critic who is a member of the Chicago Indie Critics and also the founder and director of the Film Girl Film Festival, which you can find more info about at filmgirlfilm.com! I have no intention of becoming any less obsessed with cinema, comics, or nerdom in general.

Review: Moana 2

Review: Moana 2

Moana 2 has officially arrived, and it’s just . . . fine. The characters from the beloved first film, Moana (Auli’i Cravalho) and demigod Maui (Dwayne Johnson), are back for another adventure that builds on the heroine’s still relatively newfound exploration skills. The chemistry is also still there, as are the songs, and there’s an intriguing plot that finds the duo taking on new sidekicks (including Moana’s adorable younger sister) as they go up against a god bent on sabotaging humanity’s attempts to reconnect from across the ocean.
