Best: The characters, all of them were creatively made, and have different motives and stories of their own, even a few side characters. And carry different messages that tie up into the main theme. The ambiance is beautifully set, it's loud and festive it but it's still got that peaceful, silent magic Disney has. The film also has one of the strongest starts imo, it showed Tiana's strong familial bond with her parents, which stands as the essence of the movie, then they give us a short introduction to the two leads and the villain. Anyway, this can either be a bad or good aspect since the message is already handed down at us and all we have to do is sit, wait and see how the protagonist's realizes it. The songs are good and catchy. The romance is cute, Tiana and Naveen make a wonderful couple, so does Ray and Evangeline. To summarize, it had memorable and creative characters, a strong beginning, brilliant setting and mood, cute romance and good songs.
Worst: It was a bit messy and despite the creative characters they didn't develop as individuals as well as expected. The score...it's just there. It did have good moments but most of the time it only blends with the mood not create it. And in one period, I considered it a fluff film (eh, sad but true). The start was strong but the movie ended slightly less stronger. And finally, there's Naveen's involvement when it was close to the end, what the hell was he and Lawrence doing inside the church anyway? Humming? No idea. Despite showing indirect care for each other, both of them weren't there for each other at their trials, and that's the downfall of the duo. Lastly, did anybody notice Tiana was missing? At least they could've put a little scene about this....
What could've made it better: The writers could've taken a little more time to finalize the story, (even if I love it the way it is, it could've been improved) Naveen could've had more involvement in Tiana's Fantasy sequence, say I picture a scene where Naveen escapes from Lawrence and looks for Tiana, then he finds himself watching the illusion Dr. Facilier showed Tiana, how she endured a lot of loss for her restaurant and then goes off to find Charlotte. Naveen wanted for Tiana to have her dream, but only because Tiana wanted it. Their relationship would have been more built and meaningful if Naveen wanted her to achieve her dream because he knew how hard she worked for it not only because she dreamt for it and will get sad if she loses it (that's a good enough reason, but still)
