The music of Moana 2 is the biggest mark against it with derivative melodies and clunky lyrics that screech the action to a halt.
The key to the film's musical success was composer Lin-Manuel Miranda, whose catchy tunes turned every song into an earworm.
Moana 2 is not a complete disaster so much as a superfluous cash grab that has a hard time disguising its roots as a Disney+ series.
Once you hear the original Moana's 'How Far I'll Go,' the songs in the sequel remind us how far we've fallen from that peak.
