Hardworking and ambitious, Tiana dreams of one day opening the finest restaurant in New Orleans. Her dream takes a slight detour when she meets Prince Naveen, who has been turned into an amphibian by evil Dr. Facilier. Mistaking her for a princess and hoping to break the spell, Naveen plants a kiss on poor Tiana, thereby turning her into a frog as well. The pair hop along on an adventure through the bayous to seek the help of a voodoo priestess.

Critics Consensus

The warmth of traditional Disney animation makes this occasionally lightweight fairy-tale update a lively and captivating confection for the holidays.

The Princess and the Frog will certainly be remembered years later as not only a pioneer Disney movie, but also one that allowed audiences to never let go of their dreams and that with love anything is possible, no matter your age or color.

The backgrounds are beautifully drawn. There are sunny days in the French Quarter, spooky nights among live oaks hung with Spanish moss, and a rousing denouement at the Mardi Gras.

... lovingly designed, directed at a lively pace without tipping into excess, and filled with toe-tapping musical gumbo of jazz, zydeco, swing, blues and show-tune dynamism by Randy Newman ...

3.5/4

The Princess and the Frog represents a welcome return for Disney and a beacon of cartoon light that the company should aspire to with every new effort.

The narrative is largely dull and the representation ranges from overdue to problematic. While the film still has a charm, specifically in its visuals, the overall viewing experience is more average than anything else.

I don't know how it took me until I was 30 years old to watch this movie. The story is classic, the characters are memorable and the music is fun. There is also an emotional pull to this film that I wasn't expecting. I love the 2D animation. I hope that Disney can go back to this format soon, because there is a certain charm to it. Best Character: Ray Best Quote: "She is my Evangeline." - Naveen Best Scene: The Funeral Best Piece of Score: "Fairy Tale" Best Song: "Dig a Little Deeper" (I love "Almost There" but "Dig a Little Deeper" just hits different)

Fu il primo film che vidi al cinema (nel 2009 avevo 5 anni), rivederlo oggi a distanza di 17 anni mi ha fatto tornare bambino. A mio parere l'ultimo capolavoro Disney prima del suo declino che va avanti fino ad oggi
