Movie Review Review of the movie Frozen (2013) Review by Prachi Gupta

Original review Frozen is an utterly satisfying movie. It is a comedy-adventure movie which is good in almost all fronts having great visuals, awesome music, good plot and amusing characters. (express your opinions at the end) The story revolves around two princess sisters, their love for each other and their city. Just like all other Disney movies, this one also has a nice happy ending. (change sentence structure). There is an imaginative beauty in the whole film – right from the snow covered Arendelle to the high North mountain and the magnificent snow castle. Frozen is a musical movie, as some would say. At some places, the characters talk to themselves and others through songs. The songs in the movie are amazing. They have the power of revealing the thoughts of the characters through words – be it Anna's 'For the First Time in Forever' or Olaf's 'In Summer'. I personally liked 'Let It Go'. The song perfectly captures the feelings of the protagonist who has kept so much inside her and can't hold back anymore. Indeed, sometimes all you want is to let it go. The song has some truly mesmerizing visual effects. (being repetitive, irrelevant) The movie has both hilarious as well as emotional aspect (grammar). While many dialogues make you laugh, some can make you ponder over them for sometime. It shows Elsa's lonely childhood and Anna's uneasiness due to the sudden drifting of Elsa away from her.

Original review contd… There also lies a remarkable twist as the story deviates from the usual 'act of true love' thing. Half way through the movie and there comes Olaf – the funny, little, loving and charming snowman who likes warm hugs – yet another of Disney's amazing creations which make children fall for them. He gives a new edge to the fun part of the movie through his breakable and fixable (better word) body as well as his innocence. It could have been possible that the movie was concentrated on Elsa's woes and how hard it has been for her right from the childhood to conceal her powers but that is not the case. The movie doesn't focus only on the main character, rather it has space for all the important ones – Anna, Elsa, Kristoff and Olaf (rephrased paragraph). I loved the movie. Watching it made me feel that I am a child again. It is one of the best movies Disney had made in a long time combining the artistic animation with the amazing soundtrack.
