Episode Details

Moana’s live-action debut flopped at the box office, earning just $43 million domestically despite a $250 million budget — but don’t write it off yet. Critics roasted it as a shot-for-shot remake (34% on Rotten Tomatoes), but audiences, especially parents (78% thumbs up), loved it, giving it an A- CinemaScore. While Disney’s live-action remakes have been hit-or-miss, this one’s got a fighting chance — especially with family-friendly rivals like Toy Story 5 and Minions & Monsters vying for attention. Opening weekend’s weak? Maybe — but some films rebound. The real test? Can Moana turn heads and wallets over the next few weeks?
