Verdict: Just Let It Go It’s Not THAT Good
Story: Frozen starts by introducing princesses Elsa and Anna two sisters who act like normal kids but Elsa has the ability freeze anything, but when they are playing they have an accident and Anna ends up getting frozen. To save Anna, Elsa must be isolated to help control her powers. Grown up into young adults they are finally going to be let out to see the world when Elsa becomes Queen. When Anna falls for charming Prince Hans and wants to get married Elsa secret is revealed to the world leaving the whole world in a permanent Ice Age.
Anna must go after Elsa to bring the world back to normal and on her adventure she meets Kristoff a mountain man and his reindeer Sven. The unlikely couple set out on an unlikely journey and meet a snowman Olaf the snowman that the girls used to build with Elsa abilities.
Frozen tries to spin the traditional Disney princess film here, it does achieve this but only after throwing us the false idea early. I found this very predictable and we have no clear villainous role which is always what Disney princess films have been about, I know we get someone at the end but by then it seems pointless. The story focuses on personal problems rather than power struggle which is a good point because that relaxes what more people are struggling with now. This story is perfect for every little girl out there but otherwise it really is just another plain Disney princess film. (7/10)
Character Review
Anna: Fun loving princess who just wants to be free and fall in love. After she falls in love she has to rescue her sister who has turned the world into ice. On her journey she learns the meaning of true love and discovers the world. Anna starts off as the traditional Disney princess but soon turns into a much realer woman character. (9/10)
Elsa: Ice powered queen who after an accident when young is hidden from the world only when she has to face the world again she turns it to ice. Else is what a lot of films are creating now a misunderstood character who was good turns bad but is really good, yeah. (7/10)
Kristoff: Mountain man who helps Anna along with his reindeer Sven. He soon falls in love with her but doesn’t expect anything to happen. Kristoff is a typical character that turns up in these films where they try not to be about a prince charming. (7/10)
Olaf: Snowman who has magically come to life for comic relief in the story and on Anna’s journey. Olaf really is a poor man’s Sid (from Ice Age) who isn’t in the film enough which lowers his score because he was the best thing about the film. (5/10)
Support Characters: Frozen has your very generic supporting characters that never seem to do anything else to the story and would include a couple of bad motivated characters.
Director Review: Chris Buck, Jennifer Lee – The pair do a standard job directing this attempted twist on the traditional Disney film. (6/10)
Adventure: Frozen’s adventure side to the story is not the most exciting and way too short. (4/10)
Animation: Frozen reaches the top levels of animation with ease. (9/10)
Family: Frozen is one for the family, well the female members of a family. (7/10)
Musical: Frozen has the songs that will get stuck in your head and work for the chapters of the story. (8/10)
Settings: Frozen has beautiful settings that end up making generic location for Disney princess films. (8/10)
