Description: A young
Colombian girl (Stephanie Beatriz) has to face the frustration of being the
only member of her family without magical powers.
Review: Mirabels immensely strong sister Luisa can fold five donkeys over her
shoulder, just like that. Sister Isabela constantly conjures up the most beautiful
flowers. Uncle Bruno, who has been missing for years, has prophetic visions.
These are gifts they received as children when they touched the knob of their
personal magic door, in the enchanted home of the Colombian Madrigal family.
And what happened when
Mirabel herself had her turn? Nothing at all. The heroine of the delightful,
loving Disney fairy tale “Encanto” remained the ordinary girl with curly hair
that she always was.
“Encanto” tells a layered,
complex story without an obligatory villain, and without ever losing its rhythm.
The songs unmistakably contribute to this, from Mirabel’s beautiful solo performance
to the number in which Luisa literally succumbs to social pressure.
Disney had a good year with
animations like “Raya and the Last Dragon” and “Luca”, but “Encanto” is my
favorite.
Rating: 4,5/ 5
