#THIS MOVIE IS FANTASTIC OKAY DON’T JUMP AT ME ENCANTO FANDOM PLEASE

[showtoonzfan]

So I’ve said before that I have a few critiques with Encanto here and there, (even though the movie is amazing of course) and I felt like sharing one small critique today!

So since the movie starts out with Antonio’s ceremony, then goes from that to Isabela’s engagement to the ending, I feel as if we never really got to know any of the characters as THEMSELVES fully without the plot, if that makes sense. (For example, I don’t know if the way Isabela treated Mirabel was how she NORMALLY acted all her life, or was just acting like that for the events of the movie or not) What I mean is, since all these things in the movie are happening that would make the characters under stress or react to something, we never fully get to know how they are on a normal day, what they’re like in general without a big event happening. While it is easy to predict how some characters would act by what we’ve seen (like Mirabel and Félix would be upbeat, or Julieta and Luisa would be caring) I feel like the movie should have started out a few days before Antonio’s ceremony, so then we can get a feel of how each character and each dynamic is, or at least most of them since the family is so big. Like maybe it would open with Mirabel telling stories to the kids about what her family is like, (just like the song but longer) and we have a short montage of how things run in the casita, THEN skip to the day preparing for Antonio’s ceremony. Now you could say Encanto is one of those movies where you figure out what some of the characters and dynamics are like THROUGH the events of the movie, and yeah I agree, but I still feel like if the movie had given a little time to the characters and even the setting (because I’m curious on the village, mainly how the village views Mirabel personally and her family) before the plot moved forward, (because I will admit the beginning is a little fast paced to take in everything) it would have been better, better than it already WAS though that is lol.

Encanto is still one of my current obsessions, so I certainly plan on sharing more critiques because I have a few more, and the reason why I say “critiques” is because even though there’s a shitload to praise, I can’t really say what anyone else has already said about this movie, it’s just phenomenal in so many ways, at least to me, so it would kinda be boring if I kept saying “this movie is good” over and over again, so why not share a few nitpicks and stuff I had right? So stay tuned for that, though I probably will praise it from here and there once and awhile.

Also I don’t know how this fandom is, so I’m a little scared to be honest to share critiques in general with this movie since it’s so huge, so please do not harass in the comments! I love this movie to bits but I still would love to share personal issues I had in the near future! ❤️
