I attended an advanced screening of this film. All opinions are my own.
Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Wish” is an all-new musical-comedy welcoming audiences to the magical kingdom of Rosas, where Asha, a sharp-witted idealist, makes a wish so powerful that it is answered by a cosmic force—a little ball of boundless energy called Star. Together, Asha and Star confront a most formidable foe—the ruler of Rosas, King Magnifico—to save her community and prove that when the will of one courageous human connects with the magic of the stars, wondrous things can happen. Featuring the voices of Academy Award®-winning actor Ariana DeBose as Asha, Chris Pine as Magnifico, and Alan Tudyk as Asha’s favorite goat, Valentino, the film is helmed by Oscar®-winning director Chris Buck (“Frozen,” “Frozen 2”) and Fawn Veerasunthorn (“Raya and the Last Dragon”), and produced by Peter Del Vecho (“Frozen,” “Frozen 2”) and Juan Pablo Reyes Lancaster Jones (“Encanto”). With a screenplay by Jennifer Lee (“Frozen,” “Frozen 2”) and Allison Moore (“Night Sky,” “Manhunt”), original songs by Grammy® nominated singer/songwriter Julia Michaels and Grammywinning producer/songwriter/musician Benjamin Rice, plus original score by composer Dave Metzger, “Wish” opens only in theaters on Nov. 22, 2023.
My family loves animated movies. We have been very excited to see WISH. My daughter and I had so much fun watching it!
We loved the characters in the movie and the voice cast. Ariana DeBose was great as Asha. I really liked the villain King Magnifico voiced by Chris Pine. By far, our favorite was the character of Star. Star was so cute with lots of personality and is going to be a fan favorite!
We both enjoyed the music in the film. The soundtrack has been playing on repeat, in my home, since it was released. Although the music is fun, I do not think it is as memorable as the music from other Disney movies.
As a Disney fan, it was so much fun to see all the hidden ‘Easter eggs’ in the movie. There are a lot of them. We also had a lot of fun staying through the credits. During the credits, they honor the animated movies that have been released by Disney over the last 100 years. There is also a sweet scene at the end of the credits.
My daughter and I loved WISH and can recommend it for the whole family to see!
WISH gets bragging rights!
