I’m about to watch Raya and the Last Dragon and I’m emotional. Despite all the controversy over the voice actors, I’m about to see myself represented on screen. While Moana was close . . . this. This. THIS. Will be 100x closer. 🤭🥺😭🥰

Raya and the Last Dragon 🐉was a good movie, crystal clear animation, give it a 4 out of 5. It was like Mulan + Avatar: The Last Airbender + Indiana Jones + How to Train Your Dragon + a little bit of Kung-fu flair of TMNT. Decent, no post-credits scenes.
