A Nova Onda do Kronk

Not really as hilarious as the first movie, but some decent amount of laughs I had with this one. Kronk's New Groove is just one of the more tolerable Disney sequels. On one hand, it would have a couple of segments that while connect to the movie, are generic and scenario elements that get predictable for each one. But on the other hand, it can be a decent followup to its predecessor with nice animation, good humor that's traditional to before, the heart that would affect Kronk's personality. Maybe this may be an okay choice for those that enjoyed The Emperor's New Grove. But at least set your expectations a little low because considering this is a a Disney sequel, it's not as clever as before. This is nowhere near as good as the first film, I will tell you this. But as a straight-to-video Disney sequel, it could've been a lot worse. So I'll give that this one has a fair amount of groove.

I don't know why but I love this and the first. I'm animation fan my whole life from film to detailed figures. I love this animation style. Corny movies but just cool to me. Check it out find your own groove.

Very cute for a Disney sequel. I love Kronk and I was not disappointed by his portrayal in this movie- he's still still charming and funny & had me laughing pretty much the entire movie. You really need to watch this movie w/out any preconceived ideas of sequels or high expectations. Just prepare for mild amusement and you will be pleasantly surprised. The plot line did jump around a bit, but everything was tied together in the end. I think a double conflict (Yzema and Birdwell)adds more "oomph" (for lack of a better word) and departs from your typical, run-of-the-mill storyline. I love the subtle references to other movies (i.e. Gollum & "Lord of the Rings"). I also think that the message/objective that "Kronk's New Groove" projects- to be honest with yourself and others about your true self, and to worry less about what others may think about you- is highly meaningful to today's youth (adults too!) Great job, Disney: No "nostril flare of total rejection" from me! :)

because i work at a very popular movie rental chain, i was able to see this movie before it comes out on DVD dec. 13th. i tried going into this movie with no expectations, and i must say that i was pleasantly surprised. it'll never live up to the brilliance of the emperor's new groove, but it's still pretty good for a Disney direct-to-DVD release. it referred back to the first movie a lot, and it rehashed some of the old jokes (ala austin powers movies), but it had enough fresh gags to keep me entertained. kronk was good as a main character, and we get into his character a lot, but the character development did get in the way of the humor of kronk from time to time. when it comes down to it, kronk just wasn't as funny as he was in the first movie, but he's still a great character. check it out. you may enjoy it.

I loved The Emperor's New Groove. Hilarious and highly original with great animation, music and voice work it was by quite some considerable distance one of the best Disney movies after the Renaissance era. Considering that Kronk's New Groove was a direct to video sequel that did put doubts in my mind, but I saw it anyway as while there are some bad ones(101 Dalmatians II, Cinderella II, Jungle Book II, Little Mermaid II) there are also some good actually(King of Thieves, Bambi II, Enchanted Christmas and Simba's Pride). Kronk's New Groove is among neither the bad or good ones, ranking it if I had to I'd put it around the middle. The biggest letdown to Kronk's New Groove was the story, it was very thin and felt often like a few episodes strung together. Some of it also did feel rushed pace-wise, and there are a few scenes around where they're at the squirrel camp where the humour got a little juvenile. I did wish as well that Kuzco and Yzma were in the movie more, but it was a pleasure to see them, and they do have some good moments. The animation is great though with the colour and fluidity more than satisfying, especially for a Disney direct to video sequel, and the music, especially Yzma's song, is catchy. Apart from the odd juvenile moment, the film is often hilarious, and there are some nice moments like Kuzco's crying at the cheesy footage, Kronk's music video, Yzma's song and the idea of Kronk and his father. Kronk does work better as a support character, but at the same he is likable and funny enough to be a lead as well so having him as one didn't hurt the film for me. The voice talent is top-notch, unsurprising as all the voice-actors here are very talented. All in all, entertaining but not great. 6/10 Bethany Cox
