If exposition were a contact sport, Descendants: The Rise of Red would be banned for life.

Descendants: The Rise of Red treats "worldbuilding" the way a toddler treats a fruit bowl — enthusiastically, briefly, then forgotten.

Descendants: The Rise of Red: proof the studio reads its own marketing too literally.

Descendants: The Rise of Red has the emotional range of a fridge magnet.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Descendants: The Rise of Red?

Director clearly thought Descendants: The Rise of Red was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Descendants: The Rise of Red?

Honestly, Descendants: The Rise of Red would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

The cinematography in Descendants: The Rise of Red is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Everyone praising the Descendants: The Rise of Red performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

Hot Take: Descendants: The Rise of Red's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Look, I wanted to love Descendants: The Rise of Red. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
