I have thought about how in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, the Soviet Union officials are the villains, but they are shown to be acting in reaction to existing United States weaponry and technology that is threatening their country and government. RedLetterMedia does good job of explaining this in their review of the movie.
However, their main goal is to use the titular skull for mind control against Earth's population.
Anastasia is so good. I love the animation and the songs but the movie is literally just pure propaganda.
It's just straight up like "evil magic made people want to kill the Romanovs" and it doesn't even care.
It also casts Rasputin as the villain even though he was literally friends with the Tsar and his family. He was there to look after Alexei.
I feel that. Learn to do it is such a bop. It's a shame the actual contents of the movie are severely lacking
Yeah, it's kinda boring. Bluth didn't always hit but this always felt like him just making a Disney movie and it just falls flat.
I think Journey to the Past is one the best "I want" songs though.
