Compared to previous Disney hits like Frozen and Inside Out, the hype around Moana has been minimal. But when the current began to stir, the movie slid onto our shores like a calm wave: Quiet, but impactful.

With its ambitious visual effects and cultural narrative, Moana presented not just an engaging and comical story; it also rolled out a line-up of loveable characters that we absolutely adored. Here are five that will tickle your funny bone.

MOANA is an adventurous, tenacious and compassionate 16-year-old who sails out on a daring mission to save her people. Along the way, she discovers the one thing she's always sought: her own identity. Directed by the renowned filmmaking team of Ron Clements and John Musker (“The Little Mermaid,” “Aladdin,” “The Princess & the Frog”) and featuring newcomer Auli'I Cravalho as the voice of Moana, Walt Disney Animation Studios' “Moana” sails into U.S. theaters on Nov. 23, 2016. ©2016 Disney.

The titular character of the movie, Moana (Auli’i Cravalho) must not be underestimated. Maui’s attempts to dismiss her as a typical “princess” and a mere mortal are proven wrong when she takes matters into her own hands and, at some points, even saves Maui’s skin.
