Descendants

by Joyce Kessel 




“They’re not bad.  They’re just born that way!!!”

From the Emmy Award-winning director and choreographer Kenny Ortega (High School Musical) comes this original contemporary story of classic Disney characters reinvented and the introduction of modern Disney lore. Enter this new epic universe of relatable tween characters on a journey of self-discovery. New on Disney DVD, and complete with never-before-seen bonus and a FREE bracelet!

Synopsis:  The movie starts with Prince Ben, the teenage son of Queen Belle and King Beast, about to be crowned King.  He wants his first official proclamation to free 4 chosen children of their sworn enemies to live on Auradon.  He chose Mal, daughter of Maleficent; Carlos, son of Cruella De Vil; Jay, son of Jafar and Evie, daughter of the Evil Queen to attend Auradon Prep School.  

The villain’s kids set out to get revenge on behalf of their parents because they have been banished to the Isle of Lost for 20 years without magic, wifi and NO WAY OUT!!!  To keep this spoiler-free, the kids are given the chance to prove there is good in their hearts and they are deserving of a second chance. 

When I first started watching the movie, I did not think it would be a movie I would like, but I enjoyed it.  I give Disney Descendants 4 magical wands out of 5.
