Movie Info

Hardworking and ambitious, Tiana (Anika Noni Rose) dreams of one day opening the finest restaurant in New Orleans. Her dream takes a slight detour when she meets Prince Naveen (Bruno Campos), 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 powerful voodoo priestess.

Audience Reviews for The Princess and the Frog

  • Mar 17, 2020
    This has all the marks of the classic Disney period, but it never reaches those ambitious heights. The film has a great vocal cast and they manage to bring their characters to life, but it's the overall storyline that's slightly flat. Disney throw a decent sized budget at this film, and if it wasn't for the box office clout of Avatar, it might have faired better at the box office. If you had to measure this film vs the existing library, I would have this around the middle. It's not a bad film, but it's not a classic. It's a shame this classic animated film wasn't more successful. 15/03/2020

    I have some questions, I have some comments, both of which may come across as moderately hostile, but I still enjoyed The Princess and the Frog. I'm not too sure why though. I won't be coming back for the soundtrack, which is generally one of the biggest appeals of these Princess deals, and certain things are so *yawn* Disney that you can call them before you press play, but at least it's a little different.

    Disney romp in the same manner as the old classics, yet lacking bygone excitement despite some interesting tunes.
