A tale for the heart and soul

Rating: 8/10 (8 December 2013)

Disney's Frozen is a lush movie with beautiful animation and spirit. While watching the breathtaking blue ice and snow form dazzling spirals and the characters expose their souls to each other, as the audience you cannot help but feel touched inside. This "Disney Princess Tale" is not about finding your true love, but about a more immediate love that you are born with, and that's the love you have for your siblings; for your family. Yes, you get a slight romance between some characters but it isn't the focal point of the story, so if that is what you expected you will be surprised.
Elsa shuts out her sister Anna and Anna doesn't know why. But it isn't out of malice or jealousy or superiority. Elsa loves her sister and because she is scared of harming her she keeps her distance. The journey that ensues teaches Anna what love is and Elsa her core. There are some twists in this tale that will shock you and awe you. The story gives the allusion that it will be one way and it shifts into something else. It's a good time trying to keep up with the events that almost haphazardly take place in this coming of age story. This movie is powerful in such a new way for Disney that one viewing will never be enough.
The songs are cute, not really the best that Disney has peddled but they tell the story and help you to experience the emotions that you were meant to while viewing it. (My personal favorite is the opening song "Do you want to build a Snowman?" which shows the isolation and love that these sisters go through and almost lose.) I loved this movie and would recommend it to anyone who loves a musical, and family tale, a Disney movie or just a really touching film. 9.8/10
