Miraculous Ladybug - Awakening : a review (spoilers without context)
(Made with love by someone who went to the world premiere - seen with the French dub)
The good
Nice animation
Nice OST (excluding the musical part)
Paris being a bit more like real life Paris (we love good metro representation ok)
LADYNOIR MY BELOVED I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD
George Michael royalties draining the film budget
DJwifi shenanigans all over again
The meh
Supporting characters of the show being in the background but kinda absent
Adrien being a loner for some reason
The pacing of it all is a bit all over the place even though they had 20 more minutes than the two Origins episodes
Stuff that is both bad but also makes it a must-watch
Plagg making fart jokes
Tikki rapping
Gabriel's Abba era hair
Gabriel Winx wings
Gabriel detaining random criminals in some dungeon under his house in the catacombs and criminals being casually ok with it as well as with doing a musical number with the guy detaining them
Zag making the deliberate choice to replace the "Ma Lady" surname by "Watermelon" for some reason
Adrien missing the goddamn apocalypse caused by his father due to ugly crying to Careless Whisper
The ending is a remake of Star Wars episode III last fight
Parisians being super casual abt the fact that the Seine became LAVA and that their flats won't be restored through magical ladybugs for some reason
Astruc is barely mentioned in the credits meaning that he was barely involved in its development and it shows
Stuff that is really bad imo
The SONGS.
No really the songs are bad
i mean music is dope, lyrics are very bad
Zag wanted his own Disney musical except he cannot write lyrics to save his life and has no idea how to pace a musical number to make it interesting
i.e Marinette has three "who am I, how can I become who I really be" songs when all of her internal conflict is due to her falling randomly at times, which makes a very poor (but also the only one) character arc
i.e there are seven songs in an one hour and a half long movie
i.e those songs stop the action to make us listen to lame ass lyrics (at least in French)
if i took a shot each time a song by Marinette mentioned "être moi" (being me) or each time Ladybug and Chat Noir repeated "Plus forts ensemble" (stronger together) I'd be in ER
because the original show didn't have any catchphrase at all isn't it
since the songs are stopping the movie every time they happen, there's no time for character development so
no umbrella scene
no Adrien character development whatsoever
no justification for Marinette preferring Adrien to Chat Noir
no justification of why Adrien was chosen as a holder
TL DR : A very nice musical fanfic that I'll enjoy making fun of for the years to come

Thank you. Had the exact same thoughts while watching it
Thoughts on the Miraculous movie:
Tumblr media
I'll go into details and spoilers under the cut but here's the meat of it:
Too many songs that weren't even that good
The dialogues often felt forced and empty
The animation was so pretty, like???? Their hair? All the time? So cool
We get it, the power of love and listening to your heart, you don't have to say it in every scene
Lots of changes compared to the show, some of them were great and it could have been even better BUT:
It was so fucking rushed wtf? Which kind of explains my second point
THEY ROBBED US OF THE TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCES
In conclusion:
I consider this movie as an alternative universe, a "what could have happened" simply because it derives from the TV show canon so much
I also would have enjoyed it a lot more if it weren't for the songs, they really ruined it for me
Spoilers ahead, I'm gonna tell you the WHOLE plot, you have been warned
The songs
Like... Why would they do that? Were they trying to give it a Disney movie vibe? Because it sure felt like it. Marinette/Ladybug felt very Frozen-inspired, and Hawk Moth's song (yes, Gabriel has a song, several in fact) was very Dr Facilier/Rasputin
And the songs themselves were just... Not Good. There were too many and they were so cheesy. We were maybe 20 in the room, most of us adults, and let me tell you after the first few songs the general reaction to a new one were groans. I ended up saying "please don't sing, please don't sing" several times during the movie but of course my prayers were never answered. And I usually love musicals
Cut out all of the songs, they have 0 emotional impact anyway, replace them with some dialogue and more interactions between the characters to make their relationships feel less rushed and it could have been a really good movie
The plot
We basically get a speedrun of 5 seasons in 1h40min: Marinette and Adrien get their miraculous, learn how to super-hero, we get a time skip with lots of fights against akumatized people, Hawk Moth loses his mind because of "the butterfly" (don't ask me, I don't get it either) and because he can't get LB and CN's miraculouses, so he akumatizes himself, which somehow makes him super powerful and he destroys Paris, manages to get Ladybug's miraculous and right as he's about to get Chat Noir's, he realises that that's his son under the mask and.... purifies? himself? because The Power of Love. So everyone learns who Hawk Moth is but they don't seem to realize who Chat is? That's unclear to me. They definitely don't know about Ladybug though, since the "last" scene of the movie is Marinette telling Adrien who she is and this surprises him somehow, even though Marinette de-transformed and re-transformed in front of everyone during the fight against Hawk Moth, but okay
In the background we of course get the love square, which doesn't stay as "CN/Adrien → LB LB/Marinette → Adrien" very long:
Chat Noir and Ladybug sing a whole ass duet together when he tries to confess but at the end she says no and then we're supposed to believe that she's torn between Adrien and Chat Noir all of a sudden. Marinette then tries to invite Adrien to a ball and he refuses (since he just got rejected by the girl he likes) so they're both dejected and heartbroken. But after the boss battle, as I said, Marinette reveals herself to Adrien and they kiss
Have I mentioned that this movie is 1h40min long?
HOWEVER. The scene cuts to Nathalie going into the basement where Emilie's body is because Gabriel asked her to, and we see that Emilie is wearing the peacock miraculous
So, I guess they're teasing a sequel? But Master Fu got the butterfly miraculous back so idk what they'll do and idk if I'll want to watch it if it's another musical
Also, about Hawk Moth/Gabriel: they tried to explain why he wants to destroy Paris by saying that the butterfly miraculous is evil and corrupts your mind the more you use it but... I don't buy it. I just don't. I'd rather have a Gabriel that is so hurt by the death of his wife that he's willing to hurt people of his own free will because he loves her that much and would do anything to bring her back than whatever the hell it is they tried to do here. It could have worked if I hadn't watched the show I think, but since I have...

It's unfinished work, but I don't think I'll finish it. I didn't like what I was doing, and I'm too lazy to start all over again
