Disney is busting out a new Disney Channel Original movie in a few days: Disney Descendants. In this movie, we get a look into the now where the kids of Maleficent, Cruella DeVil, Jafar and The Evil Queen get a chance to join the kingdom again with all the Disney heroes, i.e. Belle, Beast. (You know, those cats.)
Like most Disney Channel Original movies, this one seems to look to capture the spark and fame that Disney Channel hasn't seen since High School Musical. In attempts to capture this, Disney as brought in musical numbers, random choreography, and of course, High School Musical director, Kenny Ortega. (I'm pretty sure if it wasn't for Disney Channel, Kenny Ortega would be homeless.)
But just so you can get a little taste of this...gem...sure, let's sort of go with that...Disney released the first six minutes of the movie on Youtube! So let's take a gander!
That song was well...rotten to the core. This movie looks to be just as bad as anyone could predict. It's basically High School Musical meets Once Upon A Time. (Shout out to the actress who plays Blue Fairy on OUAT being Belle in this movie. I did get a pop out of that.)
I'll try to watch this movie, because I do like the new alternative spin on classic tales that Disney has been churning out lately, but this looks to be the worst of the worst. At the end of the day, this looks like it might have Disney fans asking to eat a poisoned apple.
