Best One Yet, in My Opinion
To start, let's stick with spoiler free. It was a great movie with solid characters and character development. The story was fairly standard, but still entertaining. There were a few moments of clunky exposition or unneeded repetition, but nothing that really killed the movie. Music-wise, there weren't any songs that I would say were bad, but I've already forgotten one out of the five songs, with two of them stuck in my head because they were so good. Now comes the spoiler part. You have been warned. The start of this movie was perfect for Twilight's character arc, with a nightmare being the first scene. The way this is carried throughout the movie was surprisingly well done, giving this version of Twilight a bit of a redemption arc. I know it was already done in the last movie, but this one solidifies her reasoning and gives a strong "Jekyll and Hyde" feel between Twilight and Midnight. I personally loved this part of the story, partially because it gave a fantastic, yet far too short song from her. As to the overall story of the movie, it's pretty much the girls dealing with magic when they weren't expecting to. However, towards the end, it transitions into a superhero movie, which I wasn't entirely expecting. Along with that, this entry of the Equestria Girls series gives a red herring, pointing you towards one of the new characters, and explaining their motivations, when it's really someone else. Well done, movie. Bonus points for that. But now I have to address the elephant in the room: the romance subplot. Now, I'm not a fan of the way this subplot found its way into the first two movies. It was clunky, and didn't really fit into the overall story much. That along with the painful lack of character from Flash Sentry made those parts irritating to me. I liked the step away from it in Friendship Games, instead focusing more on the characters and story, but Hasbro or DHX or at least one of the other studios involved in this one thought it would be a good idea to put not one, but two romance subplots in here. My thoughts on this choice? It actually worked. It surprised me when the main one actually tied into the story in a way that made sense and wasn't just to put one in there. Plus, that one didn't involve Flash, and instead took to someone that had a solid, albeit simple character. The second one felt a little more forced, but still fit in there fairly well. This one actually involved what seemed to be an attempt at rekindling a relationship between Flash and Sunset Shimmer, and while it only really had a couple of moments, it wasn't too bad. I was actually surprised at how well it was handled. The way I see it, with the villain, she's more of an antagonist, as she's actually trying really hard to do good, but ends up taking it too far. No, I'm not going to say who she is. This review may have spoilers, but I'm leaving that for you to figure out. But what about the side characters? The other six main characters? Don't they play a role in this? Yes. Yes, they do. However, I'd say for this one, most of the Mane Six's counterparts take a backseat in this movie. The biggest focus is on Twilight and her inner struggles, and Sunset who's trying to help her. And while the other five definitely play a strong role, and show their growth over the previous films, their parts are smaller than I had expected going in. Now onto the new magic that was shown in the previews. Well, I was a little underwhelmed with this part. All seven of our main characters end up with new abilities because of magic gems hidden in a stone cave in the middle of the camp. But while these abilities fit nicely with personalities of these characters, I feel as though there wasn't as much creativity as there could've been in the execution of this plot point. The ending of this movie was fairly solid, too, as we see most of the conflicts resolved. But a question is brought up that leads to a scene that I hope will inspire similar movies to this one in the future, as we find out that there could be more than just this one random magical hot-spot. I personally think that would fill out a handful of extra movies with the proper pacing, or just one if they throw good pacing out the window and rush everything. But it was a good setup for future entries into this franchise, or possibly even a show continuing the adventures of our protagonists as they learn to be superheroes. However, with all this praise, there are some things that drop my rating of this movie. Some of the dialogue doesn't really work for what they were going for, and there's a lot of repeated phrases, acting like we forgot something or just worded awkwardly in the context of the movie. A couple of parts stand out as odd or out-of-place, but nothing too bad. The lack of character exploration with a few of the new characters also applies to this, as the two most prominent of the new characters have fairly simple stories. The solo song from Twilight around the middle also should've been a good minute or two longer. What was there was great, but it felt like it was just getting started. That along with the completely forgettable intro makes me wonder why a couple of scenes that felt more forced were kept while other parts that could've enhanced the tone were either left out or cut. Overall, a great movie, and the best one in the franchise so far.
A surprising improvement
After Friendship Games being as weak as it was, I went into this movie expecting another downward spiral for this franchise. I was pleasantly surprised though to see how much this movie actually improved the Equestria Girls formula. The pacing seemed to work a lot better, and the music while not as good as Rainbow Rocks manages to move closer to the "good" side of the scale. Plot as well taking a positive turn as this film seemed to be more entertaining with a more focused plot that didn't feel like it was scrambled together at the last minute like the previous film. I think the biggest issue that FG suffered from is that the writers changed their mind about the focus of the film halfway through and it showed. This one however pulled less punches. With Sunset being a bigger role in this movie, and the overall feeling being far better, I would have to say that Legend of Everfree refreshes the series and is definitely worth a watch!
Sunset is by far a better protagonist than Twilight and this movie proves it
First off, this is one of the better Equestria Girls movies. Probably my favorite of what has been released so far. That being said, this movie is probably the one where I find my aggravation levels caused by Twilight's character to be the highest. The entire series would have been better off not having Twilight at all. Sunset Shimmer is far and away a much more sympathetic protagonist and has the most developed and interesting story of any character related to the series. What makes a good character is their story, and one of the reasons why characters like Luna and Sunset are so popular is because they have a base story of redemption. They went to the dark side, but have been redeemed and continuously are trying to better themselves and make up for their past. They are constantly moving forward while characters like Twilight are just... stagnant. I am incredibly disappointed at how Sunset was treated in this movie. First off, her "power" comes off as more of an afterthought than anything that makes sense. (I mean, really, the ability to touch someone and see into their mind? Compared to the abilities of everyone else, this is really bad. If anything it was only given to her to help smooth over bucketloads of exposition. Her power might as well be called "Exposition-finder-ex-machina" because that is ALL it's good for.) It's also pretty weak compared to Twilight who is given some pretty OP abilities that, to be honest, she has done nothing to even earn out of all the movies she has been present (and I mean this of her human character, not her pony character since her pony version actually did something to earn her powers). Sunset has worked the hardest to overcome adversity and is the true fighter in it all, but she's always being relegated to a back seat spot in favor of a character whose only contribution to the plot is allowing herself to be overcome with negativity. Honestly? They should just make Sunset the alicorn of the Equestria Girls series. This is an alternate dimension, after all. Why does everything have to go by the pony universe? If another film is made (and I'm sure there will be so long as there is money to be had) then I hope more focus and ability is given to the characters who actually deserve it rather than just dumping more special snowflake dust on Twilight Sparkle. Forcibly shoving something like Twilight's inept character repeatedly down the throats of viewers is NOT the way to get people to like her more.
A bit of a letdown
***Spoilers*** I've watched all the Equestria Girl's movies and I have to say, this is my least favorite. No memorable songs, barely there plot and completely off-the-wall developments. We already have the girls ponying up when they play music or show their true selves. Now they have super powers? Total gimmick from Hasbro to sell more EG dolls before Christmas. The geodes reminded me of the elements of harmony...but then...what is Sunset's? This movie had a lot of potential...but it was a bit of a letdown. There are enough unanswered questions to warrant another film...hopefully better than this one. And please, please, please. If they make another film. Please develop better songs.
Definitely one of the best:)
I have watch all the movies, there was some likes and dislikes but that's just that. the music was great . about LOE I definitely liked sunset shimmer and her power of mind reading, unlike last one it was an improvement. I liked gloriosa daisy even though she was an antagonist(reformed). and the jokes are funny. there was a county style which I liked ,it was as good as rainbow rocks music, now for my dislikes its not much to dislike, I've never been a fan of sci twi and some crush things and kisses(it was a close one)well I guess that's my only dislikes OH! oh and one more there is literally no pony twilight appearance I almost thought she did ,sadly. now back again this movies is magical! it was great probably a bit predictable on who's the bad guy, but still great. it was an improvement, a fine watch for families, not just for kids but for adults too, you wont get guilty watching it. and jokes were again! awesome...... now its 9 GEIODS OUT OF 10 GEIODS!!!!!ITs Awesome!!!
