This movie tells of a woman who learns her self-worth while those around her, family and friends, treat her as a disappointment unworthy of their attention. It takes place in Colombia. Much of the narrative is told in songs, one brilliantly conceived and presented song after another. It is in the tradition of Disney's other musical animated feature films, so the ending is somewhat predictable. A warning to parents of little ones: there are scenes of horrifying cruelty near the start and the end of Encanto. They are brief and likely will go over the heads of young ones, but they are necessary for understanding why every character behaves as he or she does. Children may leave the theater singing the songs; those people of a grownup bent may have tears in theirs when the movie ends, but they may be humming the songs for far longer. The animation is as good as I have seen, and the art is wonderful. I saw this on a widescreen TV (56 inches), which has great colors, and the movie made those colors sing.Read full review

My kids (ages 2-14) absolutely love this movie and watch it over and over again. In fact, my twelve-year-old used her birthday money to buy it. They love the music and even play the songs on YouTube just so that they can sing along with them. Great purchase!

Beautiful amination of a charming story, very engaging songs by Lin Manuel Miranda, and another positive story about a very different culture. Disney films will one day unite the world as they show us we are all more alike than we are different. Family, what more could we want in a family story. Well done.

love the move, very entertaining and engaging and finally a move that I don't mind the singing... don't take this as a compliment Disney Im not a fan of singing movies, Encanto was an exception.

Loved the Film! Encanto deserved the Oscar for best animation feature - and should have garnered even more accolades.
