Dwayne Johnson on Live-Action ‘Moana’ Reviews
Johnson addressed the mixed critical response to Disney’s live-action Moana, which opened to a 31% Rotten Tomatoes critics score (88% audience) and has underperformed relative to its budget.
He recalled the early reviews starting strong before shifting, then offered a simple take:
“If you love it, great. If you don’t, no problem.”
What mattered most to him was representation. Johnson said “the culture really stood up” and that kids can now look at the screen and say, “That’s us for the first time.”
Representation has value. But when “looking like us” becomes the primary measure of a film’s success, something gets lost. Audiences ultimately care more about character, story, and craft than identity checkboxes.
How well do Dwayne Johnson and Catherine Laga'aia know these Disney songs? 👀
