Plus, the film is propelled by some really excellent action scenes with spectacularly realistic fight choreography, made all the more fun to watch thanks to the film's animation. That said, once Raya and the Last Dragon's story does finally pick up, it's an adventure that's easy to get invested in. While all of this setup is trimmed to the point that nothing feels superfluous by the movie's end, it does present a little bit of a slog to get through before Raya and the Last Dragon really gets going. From directors Don Hall and Carlos López Estrada, co-directors Paul Briggs and John Ripa, producers Osnat Shurer and Peter Del Vecho, and featuring the voices of Kelly Marie Tran as Raya and Awkwafina as Sisu.Since Raya and the Last Dragon has such an expansive world to explain to viewers, much of the film's first act works as setup for the real story, establishing the history of Kumandra and setting the stage for the themes of trust to be explored throughout the second and third acts. However, along her journey, she’ll learn that it’ll take more than dragon magic to save the world-it’s going to take trust as well. Now, 500 years later, those same monsters have returned and it’s up to a lone warrior, Raya, to track down the last dragon in order to finally stop the Druun for good. But when sinister monsters known as the Druun threatened the land, the dragons sacrificed themselves to save humanity. Long ago, in the fantasy world of Kumandra, humans and dragons lived together in harmony.
