An Empty Journey | Disney's Strange World (2022)『Rebel Rewrite』

The latest Disney film, Strange World, boasts impressive animation and concept designs but falls short when it comes to story and characters. Conflicts in the film are introduced in a lackluster manner and are not properly resolved, with rushed themes of generational conflict and parental expectations. Additionally, the sudden introduction of a major character who is then ignored leaves one questioning the characters' backstory and overall plot coherence. Limited promotion for the film has also led to speculation that Disney may have been aware of its shortcomings.

Compared to Raya and the Last Dragon, which was also written by Qui Nguyen, Raya had a compelling premise that generated conflicts and urgency. Strange World lacks a similar driving force, resulting in a less engaging and captivating journey. The characters' actions and motivations are shallow.
