But adults know, and the casual way in which he says it makes it even funnier. Even the way Olaf said, “Oh look, I’ve been impaled,” makes me laugh because what child would know what that means? None. Heck, I even loved Olaf and the horse from Tangled because sometimes the way they spoke and acted had adult humor in ways only adults would understand. When I think of Disney movies, I think of sidekicks that parents can connect with as well. I get that it’s supposed to be like “alright, we get it, har har” but to me, it just felt annoying. I already mentioned the group project joke earlier on but there’s this one running gag where she keeps saying how good of a swimmer she is. It felt like she was almost trying to make Sisu into another version of the Genie from Aladdin where she cracks jokes constantly, but to me, that fell flat. She has been amazing in some other films, like The Farewell and Crazy Rich Asians, but there was something about her portrayal of Sisu that did not stick with me. While I do encourage Disney to do more movies like this where the proper representation is used so that way kids have someone to look up to, I did not like Awkwafina in this role.
