Frozen
This was such a good movie. Parents should
know that it is a great family movie and pretty much anyone can watch it.
There’s a reason everyone talks about it: it was great! I loved the theme of
the two sisters learning about bonding and love. Anna is adorable in her
awkwardness, and Elsa’s character is interesting with her sort-of-tragic story.
Elsa and Anna’s parents die in the beginning of the story. Elsa accidentally
hurts Anna with her powers twice–once when they’re kids and another time when
they’re adults. Also, Elsa creates dangerous obstacles with her powers, such as
a giant ice man.
It is funny and adventure-filled. It has a
positive message, and unlike any other Disney princess movie, the act of true
love isn’t the true love’s first kiss, but the love between Anna and Elsa, who
are sisters. Anna is a positive role model when she sacrifices herself for
Elsa, as is Elsa when she unfreezes Anna because of her love for Anna. The
songs are really catchy, and Olaf makes this movie funny as well! The story is
wonderful and creative, and I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone 7
and above.
Characters consist of Elsa, who has an icy
power she can’t control and has to shoulder the responsibility of the kingdom
after her parents have died, as well as trying to keep her power in, and is
suffering under the weight of not being able to tell her sister why they keep
the doors closed and why she can’t be around her anymore. Her younger sister
Anna, on the other hand, is suffering in a different way because her older
sister who used to play with her suddenly has shut her out and ‘grown up’. Anna
is sprightly and vivacious, not hesitating to try to find Elsa and apologize
when she realized that it wasn’t Elsa’s fault. Both girls are good role models
for responsibility and a love that proves the central key to the unfreezing of
winter, rather than romance. Younger sisters can sympathize with Anna’s
wondering what happened to their lifelong playmate when their older sister
grows up, and older siblings can sympathize with Elsa’s want to be with her
little sister but inability to due to the harder tasks that come with getting
older. Hans is a handsome, charming, kind and absolutely perfect (is a bit
ditzy) prince who falls in love with Anna, takes care of the kingdom during her
absence, stops Elsa from killing two men and saves Elsa’s life. Hans would be a
wonderful role model is it wasn’t for the fact that he quite suddenly turns
evil. If one complaint about hte movie could be made it would be that Disney
seems to have turned him bad for the sake of a plot twist, and it wasn’t really
necessary, because the underlying themes were enough to fill the story line and
the Duke of Weasletown could have sufficed as a villain. We all had grown to
love Hans and it was disappointing when he turned evil. Kristoff, on the other
hand, is grumbling and growly and definitely not a prince but certainly the
only one who could be right for Anna. He is brave and completely self
sacrificing for Anna’s sake. Olaf is a cheerful snowman who provides a bit of
comic relief as well as good advice: “True love is putting someone else’s needs
before your own.” Disney played up to this truth magnificently when Kristoff
doesn’t spare his own feelings to immediately get Anna back to Hans and Anna
sacrifices herself to save her sister’s life. The film outdoes itself in
wholesome characters and role models as well as fabulous songs and beautiful
animation. Frozen is a Disney movie that undermines it’s traditional “love at
first sight” and plays up to the love of family rather than that of a prince
and princess.
Parents need to know that Frozen is a Disney
animated musical that’s likely to appeal to families with children of all ages.
As in many Disney movies, the parents die, here leaving orphaned princesses who
must find a way to survive. There are a few other violent scenes that involve men
with weapons, snarling wolves, a scary snow monster, a severe storm, and a
character who nearly freezes to death. A character falls in love — twice — and
ends up sharing two kisses at the end of the story. Messages include
unconditional love between sisters after a long estrangement, being true to
yourself, recognizing your gifts, and not being afraid of your power
