You know, this was a really enjoyable movie. I mean, realistic expectations here; I didn't go in expecting another Lion King or even Monsters U :P But if you like the show, you'll probably like the movie.
First, the cons: I noticed a few minor continuity errors, and I felt like the story arc of Twilight & the other main ponies could've been fleshed out slightly more. Also, the Storm King's lines and expressions bore a resemblance to Kuzco from The Emperor's New Groove, which kind of threw me off a bit - I loved that movie, so seeing those spots that looked kind of inspired by it, it just took me out of *this* movie for that split second, you know? He could've also been fleshed out a bit more, cos he's not in the movie that long, and you kind of wonder just what his deal is.
I think the best thing about this movie was the main villainous character, Tempest. The voice acting here was great, and her character was fairly compelling. The songs in the movie were really well- written, with the ones performed by Sia and Tempest especially standing out. The major side characters introduced were pretty cool, too, and the general plot of the story was good.
Overall, I think this movie is worth checking out. Again, realistic expectations here; it's enjoyable but not amazing :P But I know I definitely enjoyed it & would be happy to see it a second time :)
