Frozen

The 53rd Disney Feature Film After years of avoiding the whole Frozen phenomenon, I finally have to admit that as a Disney film, this is an enjoyable watch. The main theme is about the power of the sisterly bond, which is refreshing. The two main characters are interestingly written, and the new concept of female characters who are independent is overall a nice touch. The stylization into Andersen's Scandinavia is also successful. I'm curious about the new direction of Disney's world. New cartoons really don't have to be just for girls and boys, because it's a win if the whole family has fun. (06/06/2019)

A cute fairy tale and probably a well-deserved Oscar. There are too many songs for my taste, but the central one is very cool. Visually, the film is great, there is a typical twist and a pretty emotional finale, so definitely above average, although I am not the target audience and there could have been more humour... 75% (31/10/2018)

Frozen is a wonderful adaptation of one of the most famous fairy tale classics that is incredibly funny, brisk, visually rich and with a nice soundtrack. The reindeer and Olaf the snowman serve a similar function to Donkey, Dory, Scrat and the Minions - to entertain, which they do to great effect. The most impressive scene for me was the sequence accompanied by the song Let It Go, both visually and musically. Oddly enough, I also got caught up in the peripeteia regarding the main villain, which gives the film another plus for me. In short, an animated film that's really nice to watch, and doesn't push the envelope so much with its lecturing, which is definitely not a bad thing. (12/02/2014)

One of the most mature Disney fairytales, where the twist is not far away and proof that the display case of legendary princesses even has room for two new members. Elsa and Anna are two adorable creatures, one with her fateful loneliness ("Let it go...") and the other with boundless honesty ("Could it be this way...?"), and despite the charisma or lines of the supporting characters, the kingdom relies entirely on their relationship. And thanks to them and the usual top musical numbers led by "For the First Time in Forever", the score is a rich one and the product of careful consideration. Frozen is definitely not flawless and it falls half a step short compared to my most beloved pieces (including the oft-mentioned Tangled), but it is not worth underestimating the animated event of the year. For some, it is worth melting for. Without hesitation. (17/02/2014)

While it's more of a feel-good musical than a children's story full of plot and classical themes, Disney hasn't done this well with a similarly-tuned fairy tale in a long time. Regardless, it's really something to watch, the animation is perfect, the story is suspenseful, the characters are adorable to beautiful (the girls are really good) and the humour is just the right kind to suit any pompous critic with an icicle up their ass. And the music, which usually bothers me elsewhere, was really charming and good this time. The best animated flick of the year, that’s very clear... 80% (31/01/2014)
