Movie #833 ......................."Frozen" (animated)


Movie #833 "Frozen" is a winner that knocked me cold (excuse the pun).  Strong female characters, sisters,  with excellent singing voices, one is Elphaba,  Idina Menzel! Broadway royalty, and the other is Kristin Bell, who holds her own and has a winning personality (like the voice in "Tangled") .  The two guys vying for their love are Broadway people and do well, and the memorable snowman you've seen in all the commercials is played by Josh Gad (from Book of Mormon).  The characters are more complex than they usually are in an animated film, esp. the women.  And I applaud the gutsy story that redefines the "one true love" idea. The secondary characters are a stitch and keep the story rolling.  This is one of the best of the recent offerings by Disney, and I am ready to see it again and again.  Oh, and make sure you stay until the very end --- you'll see a last scene and a disclaimer that are pretty funny!













Frozen2013PG                          I give this 4.7 out of 5 stars.
After her kingdom is doomed to suffer from eternal winter, intrepid Anna goes on a quest to find her reclusive sister, the Snow Queen, and break the curse. Along the way, Anna teams with eccentric mountaineer Kristoff and his comic reindeer, Sven.
