Disappointed in Disney

Disappointed in Disney

The Disney name used to represent an assurance to many parents that the content of a show would be family oriented and of sound moral ethics. The Proud Family Movie presents cloning as a trivial detail in weak plot with no indication of the moral or ethical questions involved. The plot is weak. The music is formula synthesized junk. My children watched it because the "couldn't find anything else on" I don't censor their viewing heavily, and allowed them to watch this poorly constructed program. It's too sad that Disney is too now just a money machine like so many other companies. Movie Rating; D minus.
