The Princess And The Frog

Oh no! Oh yes! Yes. I do watch these kind of cartoon movies. (From IMDB’s summary) A modern day retelling of the classic story The Frog Prince. The Princess and the Frog finds the lives of arrogant, carefree Prince Naveen and hardworking waitress Tiana crossing paths.
Prince Naveen is transformed into a frog by a conniving voodoo magician and Tiana, following suit, upon kissing the amphibian royalty. With the help of a trumpet-playing alligator, a Cajun firefly, and an old blind lady who lives in a boat in a tree, Naveen and Tiana must race to break the spell and fulfill their dreams.
The movie is okay. This is Disney’s first cartoon movie where a black girl is the lead character. I am sure kids would love this if they watch it. In my case, I guess these kind of movies have grown on me. CGI is now my cup of tea. I kept on skipping parts when they were singing, typical Disney style.
The plot did surprise me. I thought it is the same princess kiss frog and frog turns into a prince plot but no, this one is a little different. Both of them became frogs after Tiana kissed the frog prince. Seems a princess has to kiss the frog in order for the curse to be broken. Good movie by Disney but really did not appeal that much to me.
