Frozen will melt your heart

Rating: 10/10 (5 January 2014)

How do you entertain a 3 year old who only wants to play WII or football (neither of which I am very good at) - well of course, you take him to a movie! I had just talked to daughter Jen about Frozen - so off we went - on one of the coldest days of the year mind you - to the nearest theater - about 30 miles away.
The real test of a Disney movie - does it hold the attention of a 3 year old boy? Frozen certainly did. I am not sure what I enjoyed more:
* The actual movie
* Seeing so many families out together on a Saturday afternoon
* The squeals of little ones throughout the movie - those deep belly laughs we all love
* Running into my BFF who was their with her family
* Looking over at our 3 year old in the lap of his Papa Jay smiling as they eat an entire large popcorn
I will admit I don't get to many animated films these days. (In the past year I have seen two - The Croods and Frozen). One thing seems pretty consistent though: Girl gets into trouble, Girl meets boy, Girl is rescued, Girl falls in love, Girl lives happily ever after with said boy. SPOILER ALERT: This movie is different! These girls don't need any boys!! As a matter of fact, they learn a couple of lessons the hard way about who you can and can not trust - and at the end of the day, it's family that wins. I sure wish real life always turned out that way. Sigh.
Anyway, not much more to say - the little ones in the theater loved it, and so did the rest of us "big kids". Well worth the $50 spent on a Saturday afternoon.
