My theory is that Pepa was never learned to process her emotions, since she was always told to "calm down" and "stop being sad/angry/etc."
No wonder she's always a nervous wreck!
So true! That is why Bruno tells her at the end let it ran, let it snow, let it go :) more people need tolearn to feel emotions in stead of repressing them :)
Thankfully, at the end; Pepa learned to let her emotions flow freely like nature does with the weather
Isn’t that a thing that women are told, that their emotions are “over the top and effecting others”?
I don’t know, that’s the sort of symbolism I got.
Just as we can relate to Luisa as having to ‘carry everything’ without complaints, be beautiful and perfect all the time like Isabella and fix things like Juiletta
Maybe I’m overthinking, lucky I don’t control the weather
@@TequilaPrincessMx There is a simple explanation why Isabella has straight hair. It's not actually straight, she uses a straightener on her hair to make herself look more 'perfect'... likely because of social prejudices against curly hair. That's my guess at least.
@@DigiVixen Or she happened to get it from her dad.
also notice how Isabella's hair starts to curl a tiny bit more as it tussles during her "let it go" song moment. ....I think she straightens it as part of her "perfect" image schtick.
Maybe :)
I noticed this too. If it was intentional, I’m so happy they didn’t make it completely curly first thing. This would’ve been unnatural, but they did it subtly.
Straight hair is very common in the general andes region though, including Colombia... You know, the native ancestry.
That makes sense. But i also think she could have straight hair because of Abuela. Alma had straight hair when she was young,in fact both her and Pedro did and sometimes genetics work that way,we sometimes look a lot like our grandparents or aunts and uncles and if you think about it she looks like Abuela and even the fact that she looks like her shows how much perfect she wanted to be,that she was just like the perfection is person...abuela.
@@claricesilva2700 apologies if i read this wrong, but i do disagree with the idea that Alma sees herself as a template of perfection. She was of course projecting onto Isabela largely due to her being her first grandchild and resembling her so much, but the pressure on Isabela wasn't to be perfect LIKE Alma, but to have the potentially perfect life Alma had stolen from her.
Isabella's hair does actually make sense. Like you mentioned, her father has it, her mother doesn't, and it's a recessive gene. So, it is entirely possible that Julieta has both a curly and straight hair gene, and has just passed down the curly gene to both Mirabel and Luisa, while her recessive straight gene got passed to Isabella. Since Mirabel's father has straight hair, then he would be giving the straight gene to all the kids, so Isabella ends up with straight hair.
Pedro (Abuelo) also had straight hair as did Alma (Abuela)
It also plays into the pressure of perfection, because ideas about straight hair being 'more perfect' than curly hair are part of bigoted social norms.
@@wtimmins Which could also lead to a headcanon in which Isabela actually has curly hair but has to straighten it constantly to make it look"perfect".
@@Lunarayz.photos we don't actually know Alma's hair is straight. In my family my maternal grandmother always styled her hair to look less curly. When she was younger she straightened it and when she was a grandmother she would use rollers to style her curls into the same look. I can barely remember what her hair looked like she was so used to "fixing it".
And one of her sons had curly hair, the other completely straight, her three daughters have hair that goes from curly like hers was to wavy to straight.
@@cupguin to put a grain of salt on your grain of salt, im not really sure if alma at this age would keep up straightening her hair, and she certainly didn't when she was fleeing her old town. this is doubly true when you consider how straightening irons definitely dont exist in this setting lol
Thank you for paying attention to the lyrics of Surface Pressure. SO MANY people just hear a hype anthem and don't realize it's a desperate cry for help.
one of the most painful things in the movie is that Bruno told Mirabel that he got that vision when she didnt get her gift, meaning when she was 5, and now Mirabel meets Bruno when shes 15, so Bruno spent 10 YEARS behind the walls
I know, that also broke my heart... he didn't wanna leave, he stayed near his family, where he could see them and feel like he was part of them... while they didn't even mentioned his name... so harsh!
@@TequilaPrincessMx To be fair, given that he left without any explanations, I think there was a lot of pain on their side too. Pepa has a very harsh reaction to even hearing Bruno's name, and yet was the first to run up and hug him when he came back (I get the vibe that they used to be quite close before Bruno left, actually). Abuela shows similar signs when she blames Mirabel for Bruno leaving one minute and claims Bruno didn't care at all the next-- those are the irrational sentiments of someone who never fully made sense of a loved one's perceived abandonment, not someone who never cared at all. This isn't to blame Bruno for leaving-- he made the best decision available to him at the time, and he wouldn't have felt the need to leave if his family treated him better and were more willing to actually listen to him-- but I don't think their desire to avoid talking about Bruno came from a place of cruelty or apathy at all.
I totally agree it was to avoid the pain of his departure but also must've hurt him more... such a sad and complicated part of the already sad and complicated story lol
One thing I noticed is in the scene where Casita gets destroyed, all the other kids who were trying to get the candle were relying solely on their gifts. Isabella with her vines and Camilo with his shape shifting. When they lost their gifts they couldn’t do anything, cause it was all they knew. Mirabel was able to make it to the candle because she used her own strength and wits.
Yes, so true, another way of saying they felt their only worth was their gifts, cause after loosing them, they weren't even trying
If you put a picture of Isabella and a picture of Abuela when she was younger, Isabella is the spitting image of her, living her own live she never had through her, especially the fact Mariano almost look like her late husband.
There is an amazing amount of subtle details and nuances that foreshadow Isabela's later character development. You noticed Abuela removing the one imperfect white flower, but there's an utter wealth of expressions and meaning in that scene beyond that-- the sheer panic and discomfort on her face at the idea of having five kids with Mariano, snapping out of it as Abuela picks off the flower and smiling genuinely at her praise, then smiling more nervously/falsely as Abuela speaks of her expectations while straightening her posture and fixing her hair at the same time-- just, wow. I've seen plenty of people mention the flower, but I've never seen anyone talk about that whole fascinating and heartbreaking progression. Then there's the part in "The Family Madrigal" where Isabela is walking past Mariano and deliberately turns her head away from him, her half-hearted dancing with him at Antonio's celebration, her repeatedly singing "I'm fine" during the polyphonic section of "We Don't Talk About Bruno" as if she's trying to convince herself, her wide-eyed nervous reaction when Mirabel starts trying to rush the proposal along, the close-up on her extremely strained smile as Mariano proposes (she literally looks like someone is holding a gun to her head and threatening to shoot if she doesn't smile as hard as she possibly can) (...) it's awe-inducing how expressive she is and how many of these little details there are, and I know I'm missing at least a couple more that I can't recall off the top of my head.
And *then* there's the signs that Mirabel's feelings about Isabela are more complex and ambivalent than her outwardly unimpressed reactions show. In "The Family Madrigal", there isn't even a hint of irony or resentment when she praises Isabela and calls her "the perfect golden child"; you'd never know their relationship is actually quite strained from her tone and demeanor right there. (Isabela's room is also the only one that Mirabel goes inside while waking the whole family up in the first part of the song, but while I'm sure that was a deliberate choice, I don't know what to make of it given that Mirabel seems to avoid interacting with her otherwise.) In "Waiting for a Miracle", there are not one but two times where Mirabel looks like she wants to reach out to Isabela but stops with a dejected look (comparatively, Mirabel does reach out and touch her mother, aunt, *and* Abuela, but doesn't reach out to Luisa at all), plus there's the line in the second half where she's clearly referencing her sisters as she spins around with colored lights blooming around her (mimicking what Isabela did when she was introduced). That's only further hinted at by what she says to Bruno after she finds out she has to hug Isabela to fix the miracle-- or rather, what she doesn't say. She doesn't say, "I don't want to hug Isabela." She says "Isabela will never hug me." She doesn't say "I hate Isabela" or even "We hate each other". She says "[Isabela] hates me". Then that frustrated rant that's obviously masking her nerves-- she puts on a good show, but beneath the jealousy and resentment, the clues clearly add up to the conclusion that Mirabel really admires and wants a better relationship with her sister; she just doesn't think it'll ever happen. I understand the writers revealed that they were close as children, too, which only makes it more tragic (and more joyous that they finally reconciled).
I love the entire Family Madrigal to pieces, but I have to admit that my favorites are Mirabel and Isabela (as is probably clear by now), and I really wish the movie'd had more time to properly flesh out their relationship beyond what was absolutely necessary to make "What Else Can I Do?" work. A real heart-to-heart (and a real apology from Isabela) would've been great, too-- I think "WECID?" is supposed to fill both of those roles but it's too focused on Isabela's self-discovery to feel that way. Her subsequent failure to stand up to Abuela for Mirabel's sake afterward (while necessary for the story to conclude the way it did and tragically realistic besides) doesn't exactly make it feel better. Still, I love what's there already, and I could probably talk about them all day. I mean, there's that moment in "WECID?" when Isabela sings "I want to feel the shiver of something new"-- that parallels what Mirabel sang in "Waiting for a Miracle", and she even sang that right as she was looking at Isabela too! Mirabel's expression just *changes* when she hears that, and you can tell that's the exact moment she realized how deeply she misjudged Isabela and fully shifted from goal-oriented "I need to hug Isabela for the miracle" mode to empathetic "I actually care about your pain and struggles" mode. I just (...) I love this movie.
I loved the very deep understanding of a family they showed, I always wish I could do a follow up on this movie reactions because I obviously see more things while dissecting them during editing, while reviewing the video before uploading, again while doing the CC subtitles and spanish subtitles and I also watch all of them again with parents so that they can watch my videos and I obviously find so many more stuff! Love the complexity of this movie
This is a FANTASTIC analysis! I love Isabella and the subtleties of her storyline, but you pointed out even more stuff I'd missed.
@@TequilaPrincessMx hey no reason you can't do a follow-up unpacking of things you noticed later, i think a lot of people like unpacking this movie. best disney movie in years.
This makes the difference in the russian lyrics of WECID even more interesting.
While in the original Isa sings "I owe it all to you" in the russian version she straight up says "I love you" and that as they are hugging and now I am crying.
I can understand people not buying into the reconciliation. There was no real apology for Isas very clear aweful behavior to her sister (which could also be amplified by abuela subconsciously pitting the perfect and the ungifted against each other) and she also right away backed away and didnt stand up for Mirabel, which makes it seem even worse, but to me its almost more realistic. Reconciliation doesnt happen in the blink of an eye and I am sure that there is still some tension between the sisters but the first step was definitely made. For the short runtime the movie had it was definitely amazing.
nice catch on the room thing. it seems like despite their strained relationship, mirabel and isabela still have a sisterly connection to the point where mirabel is perfectly fine with just walking into her room (without isabela questioning it) and most likely vice versa. i wouldnt be surprised if theyre both that way with luisa as well
Ngl im kinda happy someone finally gets the name of the animals right. People keep calling the coatis racoons and the jaguar a tiger.
Hahaha although they might have other names, for example, Coatis are know as Tejon in central Mexico and Capibara is known as Chigüiro in Colombia :)
Agreed! Even the official subtitles on the movie call the jaguar a leopard.
Or a cheetah. Dude, it's not Africa.
@@TequilaPrincessMx that's true though, here in Argentina, the capibaras have a different name too...also, loved the reaction!!
7:15
I have not seen anyone else point this out! Mariano does look like Pedro. Dios...I wonder if Abuela's enthusiasm about his proposal was a bit of projection on the married life she never had with her lost love.
Many have commented that precisely, that Abuela saw herself in Isabela and her lost husband in Mariano, therefore she was looking forward to live the life she was robbed of through Isabela... so sad but understandable
@@TequilaPrincessMx That is truly tragic. I have lived in the shadow of the departed, and the discomfort and pressure of that situation is truly real. It feels like you break their hearts every time you aren't the person they planned for you to be, and sometimes like you're dishonoring the memory of the deceased by forging your own identity. That was bad enough coming from my family. To project all of that onto Mariano, a mere acquaintance........ 😵💫
Everyone in this film needs therapy, thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
Haha I don't think in this case the rest of the family was in on that but I find it super hard for the Isabela part but at the end, is your life, so sorry they didn't get what they wanted but is not your fault :)
I've watched dozens of reactions to this movie. The Dos Oruguitas sequence always makes me tear up. Every time.
I know... is the understanding of Abuelas past and why she became so tough for me, breaks my heart
Me too
I remember watching this and finding one of the most expressive characters in the movie was the Casita and thinking the Casita was the spirit of Pedro. It looks after the family and protects them when the house falls apart like how Pedro protected the family before he died. It would also explain why Maribel didn’t get a room as Maribels gift is taking care of the family, like Pedro, so her ’room’ is the entire house.
I think Isabella is supposed to be in the image of abuela. Her younger self kind of looks like isabella, with the straight hair, and Brunos prophecy about the hug could have actually been the hug w abuela as well, since the magic was destroyed when she argued with abuela, and the healing took place near the butterfly (which was in the prophecy as well).
The fact that Mariano looks like the grandfather and Isabella looks like abuela is important part of the movie. Abuela is trying to force Isabella to have the perfect life she never had.
Both abuela and abuelo have straight hairs.
Julieta had the recessive gene from either her parents.
Then she married someone who had straight hair too.
Isabela and Mariano look a lot like abuela and abuelo when they were young.
Which could explain why Isabela was stuck in the “perfect “ role, abuela was recreating her happy ending.
I really liked your reaction. I enjoy seeing latina/hispanic/colombian etc people react to these kind of films. More so because im white and we dont have this kind of culture. I do understand and know a little about the family dynamics, but seeing people react to it who have the same kind of culture is great. They see the film differently and can relate to it. Plus, i always feel like im able to learn more about the cultures that way.
Im not good at explaining myself but i hope you understand what i tried to say 😋.
Also, i love your aura. Its very enjoyable to watch you 😊.
Aww thanks, I think is really nice when people is open and willing to learn from other cultures
I'm Colombian and I was so relieved when I watched the movie and it was really good because it could have been awful and then I'd be embarrassed. Loved this movie and thought it was also very beautifully animated. I enjoyed your reaction to it and subscribed. I hiope you've seen Coco since you are Mexican and they did a nice job on that one too.
Yes, it was a beautiful representation of Colombia :) I think it was needed. I've seen Coco more times than I can count lol and I recommend it to anyone who hasn't as well.
Welcome to the tequileros community!
Alma and Pedro also have straight hair so that combined with Agustín having straight hair it genetically makes sense for Isabella to have straight hair
And Luisa is kind of in the middle.
Abuela sees isabella as the perfect one because she reminds her of herself! Abuela also has straight hair
My boyfriend and I cried through half this movie. It was so touching
Great reaction not really my type of movie (although I do love Lion King). I'm a Native American (Cherokee) we too have a strong family structure...thanks for not doing Snakes On A Plane. ♥️
Lol my pleasure!
@@TequilaPrincessMx I love you 😘💕❤️
I loved seeing your insight on this film. It's become one of my all time favourites. You asked a few times why Isabela is the only one with straight hair, but if you look at Abuela Alma, she also has the same. In fact, Isa has the same profile as Abeula and as you pointed out, Mariano is very alike with Abuelo Pedro. My theory is that Abuela sees a lot of herself in Isa and Mariano was the perfect match for Isa to marry so that they could have the future she was robbed of having with her Pedro. I feel like the design choices they made were very intentional when it comes to those two characters in particular as a way of visual storytelling and hinting at where Abuela's thoughts/POV might lie. I love that Mirabelle's "power" was her empathy and love and hope for her family. Her spirit and willingness to see her family for who they truly were was what was ultimately able to heal the family in a much deeper way than even Julieta's gift. In my opinion, Mirabel is the embodiment of the candle, a candle that some speculate held Pedro's spirit of hope and sacrifice, and that her love and spirit is what now provides the magic for her family. It's a beautiful film and so full of meaning and culture and I am so happy you enjoyed it.
I so agree with with your theory of Abuela seeing herself on Isabela and wanting a second chance with a Pedro look-alike... took me editing and watching it with my parents to notice Abuela' straight her... I feel for her, she had to lead a new community of refugees, starting from the ground up (very literally) alone, with triplets! I honestly think she, herself, had soo much pressure over herself that she only knew to push her descendants to be as perfect as possible to "lighten" her own weight
I saw a video of Cinema Therapy a good channel on RUclips. They said that when Mirabel said that Abuela doesn’t care about the family is actually wrong. Abuela does care but sadly was blinded by the Encanto of the powers and La Casita. Both Mirabel and Abuela love the family. Definitely a good written movie and good music. Everything was good. Touched my heart a lot. I loved it.
I agree... let's not forget that Mirable is a teen, while she can see things the rest of her family chose to ignore, she still has a tendency for drama and exaggeration, just like any other teen :)
The other large animal you were looking at was a South American tapir. There is also a Southeast Asian tapir (from Malaysia)but the body pattern is different. 😊
I've heard the name Tapir before but didn't know how they look like or that u can also find them in Asia, thanks!
Tapirs are sweet, gentle animals who are excellent swimmers. They are elusive in order to avoid predators such as as jaguars, caimans, and anacondas (predators in Asia are mostly crocodiles and tigers). They will defend themselves if threatened by animals or humans, especially if they have babies. Baby Tapirs resemble watermelons with a speckled and stripe pattern as camouflage in the rainforest. Three species are found in South America and one species in Southeast Asia.
When everyone else touch the knob the magic seem to come out of them... When Mirabel touch the knob the magic seem to go into her.. Mirabel gift was being strongest to reimbue the magic of the house cause the magic was fueled by love. The CANDLE burn down but there was a new candle storing up love in her heart. At least that's how I saw it.
Your coffee story reminded me when I was probably 7 or 8 I was fascinated by grandpa's coffee pot and how he used to drink coffee. When my grandma would pour my grandpa some coffee, she would give me a very small cup of straight black coffee and I LOVED it so every time I spent the night I would drink the tiniest bit of black coffee with grandpa in the morning. I'm a 32 year old married woman now and I have no idea how I used to drink black coffee like that. I can't stand coffee anymore and the caffeine makes my heart race lol. Then again I used to eat cottage cheese with green olives so I think I was just a weird kid🤣
First time I was allowed to have my own coffee, I made my mom's first, 2 instant coffee spoons, 2 sugars... than I went ahead to fix mine and added like 10 spoons of coffee cause it didn't look dark enough lol tried, spite it, thrown it away and had a sip of my mom's lol didn't try to fix myself one in a couple years after that, now I drink it but very light, with sugar and more milk than water lol
@@TequilaPrincessMx that's cute.
It's weird because on France, coffee is only for grown-ups 🤭
I first drunk coffee with my pop pop when I was 4. I didn’t find out until I was older that what he was giving me was milk and sugar and probably 2 or 3 tablespoons of decaffeinated coffee just enough to taste it 😂
The grandmother has straight hair so if her mother has the recessive straight and the father has straight then Isabella had a 50/50 chance of straight hair.
Me encanta ver gente latina reaccionando a ésta película jaja muy buen video, con muy buena edición y comentarios muy entretenidos e interesantes. Tienes una energía muy bella (:
Saludos desde Argentina!
Saludos hasta la orillita del continente jeje que gusto q te haya gustado :)
I'm from Brazil. I think México and Colômbia have more in common (starting by the language), but I love the feellings this movie brought me. We are part of Latin America too, só ir was great! Mirabel looks just like my wife!
I think Mexico and Brazil also have a lot in common, specially the colorful part :) thanks for watching!
I loved this Movie so much it was so heartwarming🥲. I loved the message it sent out and my family loved it also. And I love the X-Men movies also they are so good and don't get enough credit. Also incase you are still wondering that one animal you saw is called a Tapir it is a vegetarian that looks like a pig and swims like a hippo but is actually a relative of both the Horse and the Rhino. And my mom always made soups 😋🥣
Ohhh a tapir! Have heard of it but didn't know how it looked :) thanks!
I enjoyed your reaction so much! We had similar reactions to the movie. I'm Puerto Rican and I loved the movie. Thank you for watching the movie!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed
I'm not from a latin family but I can tell you my grandma sure has strong opinions over the family. I related a lot to this movie. She's definitely the matriarch and we all seek her approval. I was just out with my sister because she was shopping for a wedding dress and she invited our grandma. In the end, she ended up really liking this strapless dress with this gorgeous sweetheart neckline. It really fit her body type and she looked gorgeous in everything but she was really concerned about our Grandma's opinion. She said it looked beautiful on her and she ended up picking that dress. But I'm sitting in the back with my mom and grandma and they're whispering to each other. In truth, my grandma was really disappointed that she picked that dress. She didn't feel it was right to wear it to church. My sister originally wanted to have a wedding at a beautiful hotel but my mom and grandma ended up ganging up on her for that and made her agree to a church.
I tried telling her that it's her wedding and she deserves to have what she wants. This is a once in a lifetime kind of thing and she should go all out since it's her day. But pleasing the family tends to have a very big influence on her, as well as me. I can say that as I've gotten older I've started to move away from it but my family means a lot to me. I have much closer relationships with my aunts, uncles, and cousins than many other people have and family is one of my core values.
I dunno why I typed all of that. All well.
Thank you for sharing! Yes, when your family is that important to you, 9ne tend to arrange and accommodate our lives and choices to please them, but we never will completely. I think is very important to learn yo defend our taste, choices and opinions while still respecting theirs :) will make our lives happier.
This movie, really just called out my bad habits on handling things, I've tried to be perfect, I've tried to keep how I feel secret and feeling useless if I can't do anything to help and I would get blamed for everything before by other family members without doing anything. But about Isabela she reminds me soooo much of my older sister Mia, but she considers me the "golden child" and I just thought it was ironic.
I think we all have a bit of several characters, I identified myself with Camilo (shifting and molding yourself to please and be halpfull) from my preteen an teen times definitely a lot of Pepa and some Mirabel, observing and figuring out how to help others but a bit of an emotional mess herself :)
@@TequilaPrincessMx Yess, I identified with multiple characters from different times, glad I'm not alone in relating to multiple characters though! But anyways I really enjoyed your reaction! Going to double check if I subscribed, can't wait to see more of your reactions in the future!
Welcome to the tequileros community!
I really liked this reaction of yours! This movie is also beautiful every time I watch it. Your commentary is really interesting, especially at the end where you explained a lot of family issue-things.
Glad you liked it, I wasn't sure if I was explaining obvious things lol
Thank you so much for this, I love watching Latinos like me (Argentina) react to Encanto! I cried with you, and it was posted on my birthday too, fun :D!
Hey, happy belated birthday!
I literally cried the entire movie but the songs are so good that I was just jamming trough the tears
Oh I still sing them in my head when I least expect it lol mostly Familia Madrigal and We don't talk about Bruno
I like that you pointed out that Mariano looks a lot like Pedro. Abuela might have picked him our for Isabela specifically for that reason. I think a lot of the pressure for Isabela to be perfect comes from Abuela living vicariously through her, wanting her to have the perfect life that she wanted, but couldn't have, with Pedro.
I think the reason Pepa freaked out so much on her wedding day was because Bruno said “It looks like rain.” Which to some that means “It looks like a bad marriage.” So in Pepa’s eyes Bruno had a vision and said her marriage wasn’t going to last. I kinda see this as Bruno’s fault only because he made that joke to his sister who he knew had anxiety. Not hating on Bruno he just should’ve known better.
You are right, Bruno should’ve known better, Pepa overworries for everything, not a cool thing to say BUT the hurricane itself was Pepa’s fault :)
It's impossible to control yourself ALL the time! She's his sister, I'm sure when they were little kids they teased each other and argued, and he probably even figured out ways to gently tease her as they grew up with their gifts. Everyone was probably on edge about the wedding and even a little gentle humor or an oblique friendly gesture was too much at the moment.
Un abrazo muy cariñoso desde Bogotá,capital de la tierra del realismo mágico y del encanto.
Un abrazo cafetoso de vuelta jaja
What ticked me off is that Alma did believe Mirabel about the cracks in Casita, but still humiliated her in front of everyone. Just shows how despicable she is.
She's not despicable, she didn't want people to think the family was getting weaker, latin families tend to care too much about what people think of them, as the cracks were no longer visible she wanted to pretend (even for herself I think) that everything was perfect... she was selfish, that I do believe
@@TequilaPrincessMx That last part we can agree on.
So much detail to notice in this movie. I could type for an hour. :) I love how the "Gifts" are reference to the roles people play in the family.
Encanto is one of those movies that make me wish magic, miracles and superpowers actually exist. I hope the movie gets a series or a sequel sometime soon.
I fell in love with Encanto when I first saw it in the theater, and I have watched many, many reaction videos since. Yours was the best! Kudos to your editor! Well done! Tears are the honesty of the soul. There's never a need to apologize for them. Beautiful!
Aww thanks! I actually edited myself, I feel really thankful for your praising in that lol it's been a learning journey
My family is caucasian and pretty loose (we're all over the map). Our parents didn't burden us with unreasonable expectations and let us be ourselves, so I never felt any pressure to conform to any particular norm--at least not through them. The greater society does a good enough job of making you feel inadequate already lol
Isabelle can and always could’ve made all different types of plants and trees. However, Abuela insisted that she only grows “pretty flowers” for the community. So Isabella only knew about flowers.
I’m happy the RUclips algorithms brought me to you today. Enjoyed your reaction. Subbed.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
Abuela doesn't have curly hair either. Oddly, neither does Abuelo Pedro, so I'm more concerned about how the triplets *did* end up with curls! Maybe Abuela just spends the time every day to straighten her hair for some reason...? But then when Agustin married Julieta, she'd have the recessive gene hidden under whichever parent was supposed to be the curly-haired one, so one out of three daughters having straight hair is perfectly normal and expected.
Or Isabela, as part of her need to be Señorita Perfecta, is the one who straightens her hair for the Disney Princess Look.
I also wonder about Pepa's redhead lol
@@TequilaPrincessMx remember Colombia is a mix of cultures and races ( there are black, white and "mixed" look colombians in a same family)... example my family... we have basically ALL colors... some friends call us "de todito".
And remember... There always a dark past about it... slavery , r*pe of black and indigenous people .... . In this case Abuelo or abuela probably have a white grandparent.
Pedro could easily have curly hair but it doesn't look like it because its so short
Yeah, this film does a good job at drawing out thoughts and feelings.
Great reaction and insight. I'm proud to be your 1,000th subscriber. Can't wait to see what else you react to. Much love.
Wow! Thank you so much and welcome tequilero!
3:30 Actually its not, especially considering they would be close to newborn size. You can actually see this in real life in the news reports about Pamela Zeinoun, a nurse in Beirut credited with saving 3 babies during the explosion from 2020 and carrying them 3 miles to safety. Now, yes, Pamela carried the babies with their faces towards her chest, but you cant do that in the movie cause then the audience wouldnt be able to connect with them through their adorable faces.
Also; Actually both Pedro and Alma have straight hair as well as Agustin so its much more likely that Isabella would inherit straight hair. Genetics are not simple and its basically a grab bag of what traits your going to get from the previous 2 generations who influence your physical appearance. I mean in my own family, my dad has black hair, my mother and I have brown and my brother has my grandfather's blonde hair. You cant really guess how these things will turn out.
Although, this babies were suposed to be barely a day old, can't hold their heads and an expericecnced nurse is obviously better at it than a brand new mom :)
Me and my entire family are middle eastern and my dad has green eyes. None of us inherited them but we do now carry the recessive gene for them in us so it's likely that one of us might end up having a green eyed child. If we should have a partner who carries the gene as well and even then it's 50/50. Like you said genetics are complicated. That said My grand mother's sister's grandson is literally a ginger. No clue where he got it from. Both his parents must have carried the gene or maybe it's actually dominant? No clue but I thought of him when I saw Pepa appear for the first time.
Me and my entire family are middle eastern and yet my dad has green eyes.

Well done, Ro, really enjoyed seeing your reactions. Feel like I've actually seen the whole movie by now. Regarding the family dynamic, yes, there are some things common to all families; the favored one; the attractive one, and so on. But here in the northeastern US perhaps the grandparents don't carry as much weight. They are listened to, but my memories of grandparents and older relatives is of them complaining about this and that, not very happy or kid friendly. I hope to be a wise and warmhearted granddad when the time comes.
I think you will, you already have the right mindset :) good start
Thank you for sharing!!! Love this reaction ❤🎉
theres a theory that since isabella looks the most like abuela in her youth than any of the grandkids, all of abuelas hopes for continuing the family fall on her and she therefore is the "golden child". I assume its also why she arranged for isabella to marry mariano, who looks so much like abuelo, like you pointed out!
18:03 I don't even know lol. My family has curly hair and me and my cousin are the only ones with straight hair which is kinda confusing cuz both my parents and both her parents have curly hair so I don't know, genetics???
But in the flashback Abuela looked like she has straight hair so I guess maybe Isabela got that from her
Maybe, although my hair looks pretty much straight when I braid it :)
I watched this movie on repeat in 2023 as therapy, while having a mental breakdown from perceived pressure from my own father, society and sports. I really saw myself in bot Isabella, Luisa and Bruno
This was a really great review. I have watched a few of these on other channels and you do not need to be embarrassed about crying. I have seen strong men sobbing into a hanky in most of the reviews. I am not Latina, but as the oldest in my family, I feel very much like Luisa. If I don't keep things together, who will? I like your sassiness, your empathy and your energy. Keep up the great work. One last question though... Where did Bruno find a horse in a village of Donkeys???
Hahaha that is a very good question, and an amazing one lol
Thanks for your kind words!
love the message of this movie
Your video was amazing! ❤ and the reaction was perfect ❤❤
Great reaction, this is one of my favorites!
Also don’t ever feel bad for crying, or being emotional, that’s part of being human. I’ve watched Encanto several times now, and still cry.
Thanks for watching! I'm not a fan of crying in public but I am a fan of the kinda movie that makes you cry lol
Wow you picked up on so many things that I never even noticed. Well done. Your intelligence is off the charts.
Haha thanks for watching!
What’s interesting is Mirabel’s voice actor Stephanie Beatriz is reunited with her In the Heights costars Olga Merediz and Lin-Manuel Miranda.
Lin-Manuel was sure busy throughout 2021.
Fun reaction, thank you for posting!
Thank you for watching
Hola! This is the first video of yours I have ever seen, and I wanted to tell you I enjoyed it. Looking at the other videos you have uploaded, I realize this is not primarily a movie reaction channel, but I would like to request a couple more if that's okay?
**The Book of Life** and **Coco** (because they focus on Mexican culture)
and also
**Inside Out** (since you acknowledged Pepa's struggles with her emotions)
Gracias! ✌
After I reach 1k subscribers I might do a special commentary on Coco and I was most definitely planning The book of life for Dia de muertos, Inside out is not really on my list but an interesting suggestion, although I have to point out I have already seen them all lol it wouldn't be a first time watching
I loved you reaction and I cryed with you too.
(I am from Brazil 🇧🇷, and Love this Movie!)
Aww thanks, specially for crying with me lol makes me feel warm inside
It breaks my heart the look little Mirabel gives Abuela when the door disappears. Like, "What did I do?" -- I watch this movie once a week, at least. And considering I just watched like... 12 reactions back to back.. oi. Hahaa Also, the actress for Mirabel (Stephanie Beatriz) has said that she had started labor contractions while recording "Waiting on a Miracle" - she had her daughter the next day.
Ohh wow, that is for sure an answer to the song lol
Really nice reaction! ¡Gracias!
Gracias a ti por verla :)
Isabella has straight hair because she’s supposed to be the native representation in the movie, notice also the hooked nose and high cheekbones, it’s just to show how diverse the genealogy of Colombia is
It was so refreshing to watch this from a fellow Latina's perspective, especially someone who knew what a coati was! So many reactors think they're "weird raccoon things!"
Thanks! you should check out my Coco reaction
It looked like Abuela's hair was straight as well as Isabella's father, so maybe it was possible that Julieta passed the recessive gene down to her. Loved the reaction btw!
I am not good at holding my tears back either, but I loved your reactions as they were so much like my own.
Hahaha yes, holding back tears is hard
Don’t hold back those tears. They are your natural waterfall of emotions. Let it out! ❤
I LOVE THE SHE USES 'Latin' instead of that horrific "latinx".
Love the reaction
Hahaha I respect new ideologies but I'm a bit purist when it comes to languages lol
Antonio is my favorite character he is so cute and I'm obsessed with "we don't talk about Bruno" and I am a grown adult 🤣🤣🤣
i see the Madrigal family as a pearlneckless, where all the members with a magical gift is one pearl, abuela is the lock and Mirabel is the string that holds is all together and make the neckless of all the pearls.
OMG I looooved that analogy!
@@TequilaPrincessMx and the doorknob symbolizes that Mirabel is going to be the next keeper of the candle and the magic, after Abuela.
Ohh yes, I got that too, also, her "magic" is stronger cause is healthy, if you noticed the magic expanded to the whole town, the floor was able to push them in, while before the magic was contained in the casita only
I barely cry when i watch this movie, but when it gets to how Abuelo Pedro dies and Dos Oruguitas plays the waterworks start
They knew how to touch our hearts telling that story
I love watching people react to this movie even if I've never heard of them I get a lot of people suggested for me as a first video to watch of theirs is in encanto and I love it I have found several channels that I actually follow this way now I believe before I actually saw the movie I watched about six people react to it
Glad you enjoyed!
Good editing and reaction. Well done.
Thank you! That means a lot to me
I love this movie so much! I might be obsessed with it! I alive all the characters but my favorite is Mirabel!
Minha querida e amada netinha, adorou esse filme
Adorei teu vídeo!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Eu adorei también
Straight hair is a native trait. Abuela has very straight hair as well :)
I loved your reaction. I would also like to see your reaction to Disney's Coco. It's so awesome and definitely have the tissues ready.
Make sure to check out my channel this Nov 2, you might find a surprise there ;)
What I loved about this movie is how it points out that families can pressure each other so much without even realizing it. My grandparents were our binding glue. When Grandpa died, the family started to fall apart - and when grandma died 2 years later, it was done. They were the only thing keeping our family a family, sad as that is. I was raised by them b/c my mother didn't want to raise me in the lifestyle she had chosen, but she was always in and out. I had them, my mom, my aunts and uncles....and now, I only have 1 aunt that really talks to me still. She was my youngest aunt, and was always a "black sheep" in the eyes of the rest of the family (but not Grandma...and mostly not Grandpa). The pressure of "belonging" alone can cause so much stress. And each of the cousins, almost everyone can associate themselves with one of them.
No - we are not Latino, though my youngest aunt is married to a Chilean right now...they've been trying to get him into the US, but it's tough. However, family structure is a very integral part of the slavic region, where my grandpa's parents were from (to be specific, Poland and Ukraine - some would say those are not, but last I checked they are).
I found Russian and Ukrainian culture more similar to Mexican than I ever imagined when I was trying to learn Russian, so I get it :) thank you for sharing
12:40 It's a more recessive gene. Like Pepa. But if you pay attention to the newer version, you can see that Alma also has straighter hair. And Some say that Algustin's hair is also straightened, but you can't be sure because it's too short.
I love how his color scheme is Disney Villain Green. Also, check in the background during the whispering cousin's part during We Don't Talk About Bruno. >w>
When her father said he was thinking about his daughter, I don’t think he thought she wasn’t part of the family. It was because while he cares about the family, he was prioritizing his daughter over everyone else.
I meant the grandmother, she was complaining like Mirabel is not part of the family because her father protected her :)
Thank god, all the reactions I've seen to this and you are the first to recognize that its a Jaguar plushie she made him, I've heard people say tiger, leopard, lion, and cheetah.
Hahaha in their defense, a leopard and s cheetah also have round spots lol
Here's from Taiwan (and she is an island in Asia).We have a similar attitude of family relationships, the grandparents have more authority to decide (sometimes even the grandaunt and granduncle and so on, in the families who have lots of history).
Nice detail at 12:26. I never would have noticed that.
I think so too, that the guy looks like her grandpa and the girl playing the drums looked like her grandma. Isabella has hair like Augustin
this movie and turning red both made me cry, tbh. granted my family is korean and not latin or chinese, but the underlying theme of familial pressure and generational trauma? yeah that hits REAL hard. never a dry eye when i revisit these movies
Welcome to the club buddy! Have ypu watched Coco? It's a fantastic movie along the same lines, check it out if you haven't
This movie has a thiiiick layer of hints and Easter eggs, and some of them point out that Bruno is an exile even before it is stated that "we do not talk about him". At the beginning, Mirabel points at the family tree on the wall, and Bruno's image is much paler than the rest, indicating that someone (hem-hem) tried to get rid of it; and when the mural of the Madrigal family is shown, all the family members depicted on it have calm or cheerful expressions, except for Bruno, who is clearly anxious (if not scared)
In Brazil kids usually drink coffee and milk. Actually coffee and milk is also a slang for someone you shouldn't take too seriously,Ike in a game someone you should treat more nicely without being competitive.
Nice, here in Mexico we have something like that too, we say they are made of chocolate, therefore they don't loose or the rules apply more loosely "el/ella es de chocolate" Thanks for sharing!
Excellent movie. I could relate to Bruno, who nobody talks about.
your hair is lovely
Thanks!
I for one have enjoyed Encanto and I have viewed this movie many times. The pressure that Abuela Alma has placed on the Grandkids is most apparent on Luisa that her physical strength is being over used by not just the La Familia Madrigal but the village. The person who had his donkeys get out should have been his job to gather his donkeys and Luisa's. Isabella Madrigal is forced to be perfect because of Abuela Alma's desires. Julieta and her children gifts are more practical to La Familia and the community except for Mirabel's who appears not to have a gift. Yet Mirabel has the greatest connection to La Casita of any of La Familia Madrigal. I feel that the door to Mirabel's Room could not be handled by Abuela Alma or a Five Year old Mirabel. The door faded away to protect not only Mirabel but the La Familia Madrigal. When Tió Bruno had his first vision about Mirabel and La Casita he knew that nobody would accept that vision and that forced Bruno into hiding until he was discovered by Mirabel. The hug or reconciliation that Mirabel gave Isabella was just part of the vision and that hug of reconciliation was also needed for Abuela Alma. Abuela Alma never was able to return to the place of her greatest loss the loss of Abuelo Pedro. Mirabel's true gift did not need a door for her gift to prosper. Her gift needed a whole house.
In deed, a 5 year old was not yet ready to handle her gift, and also her magic was way beyond the casita, it was the while town who would benefit from her magic. Thanks for watching
Great reaction! Thank you soooo much 🙏🥰
Si te gustaria ver mas programas colombianos, Amar y Vivir (the English title of which is All for Love) tiene música maravillosa ¡y una historia hermosa!
I've tried to watch a lot of Telenovelas (porque estoy aprendiendo español) and there have been a few I didn't finish if the plot was too depressing 😅 but this one is good enough to rewatch multiple times 🥰
They even have several famous Colombian singers make guest appearances! 😍🤩
I'm not really a fan of telenovelas, here in Mexico we also have plenty lol but I will give it a try. There is one tho that I did enjoy a lot but it's brazialian, called O clon, I saw it with mexican spanish voice over, if you decide to watch it make sure to watch the original, not Telemundos remake
@@TequilaPrincessMx that sounds really cool! One of my favourite shows, Julie and the Phantoms, is based on a Brazilian show called "Julie e os Fantasmas" I haven't seen the original yet but I want to because Julie and the Phantoms is the best, so the original has to be good too, I would assume! 😂🥰😍
Un nuevo sub espero ver mas reacciones tuyas
Viva México
Gracias y bienvenido tequilero!
The part about Isabella's hair being (mostly) straight is interesting. In a sense I feel like, Mariano does resemble Pedro to some extent. Likewise Isabella looks like her grandmother when she was young. Meaning Abuela is living vicariously through Isabella. This might not have gone unnoticed by Abuela either. She may have spotted the resemblance. Hence why she's always right behind Isabella and arranging a whole marriage for her. Isabella not wanting this deep down is evidence enough. She was doing it to make OTHERS happy, not herself. We can also imagine that she's learned her attitude towards Mirabel from her grandmother, even saying similar things. "If you werent always trying so hard you wouldn't be in the way" Is pretty much the same as: "I know you want to help but tonight must go perfectly. So the best way for SOME of us to hep is to stand aside." The straight (ish) hair may actually come from Abuela herself.
Many have already pointed out to me Abuela's resemblance and her livig through Isabella but is the first time anyone say her attitude towards Mirabels is learned from Abuela 🤯 you are sooo right!
When will humanity learn...perfection is nothing but a lie
I just want to say The order of the madrigal triplets is
Julieta: Oldest
Pepa: middle
Bruno: youngest
When the rocks hit Louisa in surface pressure you react with the exact same look Mirabel gives lol
