Frozen Reviews
I felt like Frozen was a mixed bag: not as bad as I feared it would be, but not as fun to watch as Tangled or as subversive as Brave.

... Frozen, the newest Disney contribution directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, falls a bit short.
| Original Score: B- | Sep 6, 2017
The songs aren't good enough to stick in your head and the characters aren't good enough to be iconic, but Frozen is pleasant enough. May it have a long life on ABC Family, clogging up your weekend 온라인카지노추천 holiday schedule for years to come.

'Frozen' feels like it's breaking new ground in telling a story where the women are actually in control, and where the clichs of their narratives are turned inside out, almost as a sly commentary on what has come before.

The computer animation of the characters is expressive and detailed (we even notice the freckles on the shoulder of the heroine) while the film-makers work wonders with glacial landscapes in a land of "eternal winter."
| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 8, 2014
Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee's extremely loose adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's The Snow Queen strives to put a post-feminist spin on an archetypal Disney princess fantasy, with mixed success.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 8, 2014
Hans Christian Andersen's The Snow Queen is the loose inspiration for Frozen, a celebration of family and the bond of sisterhood set against a beguiling snowbound backdrop. And like Tangled before it, Frozen has all the hallmarks of an instant classic.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 8, 2014
The animation is simply superb. Ice has never looked so good, except as the real thing. Technical precision and innovation is expected nowadays in computer animation but Frozen combines that with a gorgeously rich design.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 8, 2014
Disney has another hit in its repertoire with this heartfelt story of sisterly love and one of the few films released in 3-D this year that splendidly incorporates the technology into the plot line.

Frozen is a glacially stiff, perpetually unamusing animated musical with a talk-singing score that will leave one pining for the lifeless soundtrack to The Princess and the Frog.
| Original Score: 0/5 | Dec 8, 2014
Frozen reminds you how many animated films rely more on inside jokes. It's modern without being hip, earnest with being sappy.
| Jan 17, 2014
A very traditional Disney animated feature filled with rather old-fashioned songs.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 23, 2013
Has everything you want for Christmas: belting songs, soaring hearts, snappy jokes and an inspirational reworking of the traditional happy ending.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 8, 2013
The glitz will satisfy militantly feminine sprogs, but is completely at odds with Elsa's gutsy character and Frozen's pioneering message.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 6, 2013
This loose adaptation of The Snow Queen is the best film from Walt Disney Animation in close to a generation.
| Original Score: 5/5 | Dec 6, 2013
Extravagant care is taken with minutiae, and the directors, Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, whistle through the first twenty minutes of the plot with a controlled giddiness that would leave many live-action adventures staggering in their tracks.

Glorious family entertainment.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 5, 2013
It is jolly, spectacular and sumptuously 3D'd. At times it is actually funny.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 5, 2013
A very decent seasonal Disney feature which amply refreshes a haggard old template.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 5, 2013
Quietly revolutionary, or boldly feminist, or just a well-told story being true to itself?
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 5, 2013
