I'm going to receive a cold reception, aren't I?

Get it? It's supposed to be... oh never mind, let's get on to the review. Frozen is another fine Disney musical that is, so far, the top-grossing animated movie of all time, and also the most acclaimed wide release animated feature film of 2013 (tied with The Wind Rises). My experience? I did take most of the points off for the script, as it seemed out of touch with common sense that Hans would suddenly become a villain, when in fact the Duke of Weselton would have been fine enough (if Kristoff loves ice, then why wouldn't he choose Elsa? How is that illogical?). Let It Go was fine, though I had much more fun with For The First Time in Forever. I don't know if that's because I prefer Anna's singing voice, but it executed its over-the-top yet still majestic (the animation makes it brilliant, unlike Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs 2) tone better than Let It Go's coming-of-age-ness. Some of the jokes are funny (I underestimated how much Josh Gad could tickle my humerus as Olaf), but it's mainly the animation and songs that drive it. You might not like Let It Go, but alas I still recommend it for a dose of the mixture of old Disney formulas with modern twists.
