Elena Of Avalor Review


Hello Disney fans since Elena season 2 is due to start in just under four weeks time i thought i'd finally give you my thoughts on the series so here is my review of Elena Of Avalor.


The basic premise of the show is young princess Elena has to learn how to rule her kingdom. That's really all i can say without giving away the plot to a movie i want to review but i have to admit the story for the show is really interesting and i like the fact that it doesn't have an overall story arc each episode is pretty much episodic and for this show it works.


Since the voice cast for this show is pretty huge i'm not going to name every single cast member but in the show we have Aimee Carrero , Jenna Ortega , Keith Ferguson , Jillian Rose Reed and Joseph Haro. The voice cast for this series are pretty good and looking threw the guest cast i found out they have some pretty huge names on the show as well but i personally love Aimee Carrero as Elena if her show Young & Hungry ends she could easily make it as a voice actress.

Now as you can gather by all the above pictures the show is done in CGI and while i would have preferred it to be done in traditional 2D the CGI in the series is shockingly good every episode has top notch CGI which for a TV show on a TV budget is a freaking miracle.

The characters also have some really great designs to me they look like classic Disney characters and that's a good thing to a degree because at times they look a little two much like a cartoon and that can take me out of an episode.


The theme to the show which is called Elena Of Avalor is done by Spanish artist Gaby Moreno and to me since the show is based in Latin American culture it helps that the theme song would also have a Latin American feel to it and the theme song is really super catchy.

The score and songs for the series are done by John Kavanaugh and the series mostly features a new song in every episode but the problem is the songs are very hit and miss for every good song there's at least two or three bad one's but the way i see it is that's a pretty good record since the show has been picked up for season's two and three.


Overall i will say that while this is a spin-off to Sofia The First you don't need to have seen that show to under stand this one altho i do think you should Elena And The Secret Of Avalor since it's prequel to the show and there will not be a rating for this show.
