How we stay independent. Editorial scores are not for sale. TVI may take on paid advisory or research work, but no commercial relationship buys coverage, advance access to scores, favorable treatment, or a change to a published finding. We pay for our own streaming subscriptions, and no reviewer sees sponsor data or affiliate revenue tied to a score. More about how we work →

The TVI Take

Thomas Kail's live-action remake reproduces the 2016 film's structure without finding a reason for the change of medium, staging most of its scenes against backdrops that read as backdrops. Mark Mancina returns and Lin-Manuel Miranda adds one new song, Along the Way, in which Auli'i Cravalho hands the role to Catherine Laga'aia.

The wayfinding still lands.
