I went in March, and was very disappointed. The idea was kind of cute, but the show was too short, the angry goddess looked and sounded more African than Polynesian (just an observation, not a racist comment), the music was too "hip", and I don't think Tikis would rap.
It was nice to find out at least two of the original performers (Wally Boag - Jose, and Thurl Ravenscroft - Fritz) were still alive and recorded updated parts. It was kind of funny to hear Pierre sounding just like Lumiere (Jerry Orbach did the voice for both).
On the whole, though, The original Disneyland Tiki Room is the best.
