Hiccup Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 It is a good film but definitely one of the most overrated films of the year. I thought Monsters University and Despicable Me 2 were better. The animation is okay. I didn't like any of the songs and they got annoying after a while. The characters aren't likable at all. 7/10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goffe Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I didn't like it, cliche as hell (even for an animation), terrible dialogue, childish humor, too much musical numbers, the epiphany at the end was laughable and the animation was very bad for a 150m movie made by Disney. what I liked? gorgeous visuals, some scenes were amazing (Ice castle invasion and the blizzard at the end were just WOW) and "Let it Go" gave me goosebumps.

Kalel009Shel Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Finally saw Frozen, its a great film but in my opinion definitely overrated. It is not as good as the Renissance super era of disney..No way!! The songs are not classic and unforgetable as those in TLK, Beauty and The Beast, Aladdin, Lil Mermaid, Tarzan. Come on now, and the story though its fantastic is not heart felt as how you feel with Bell and Beast and Simba and his dad etc. I do give the film a 8.3 out of 10.(Incredibles I give a 9.6, and FN a 9.1). Still rate Incredibles a lil better than Frozen.. I think Frozen is just a shade beneath Finding Nemo is quality but Frozen is definitely in my top 25 all time Disney films.

Kalel009Shel Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 If they were just aiming for the target audience of young girls then I think this does the job as good as any Disney princess flick, but unlike many of the Disney classics, I think it will leave most other audiences lacking. The movie was actually too cutesy, imo. There were points that I actually felt embarrassed to be in a theater watching this as a 23 year old, kinda like I was watching a Barney movie or something. And if you know me at all you know I love animation, so it's not like I think animation is too kiddy for me or something. I can't imagine boys over 8 liking this at all, and a lot of girls over that age may not either. Olaf is the one saving grace for the older audience I think, but it just has nowhere near the smooth sophistication of a Mermaid, Beast, or a Tangled. I absolutely hated the music, which is what I heard the most hype about and was expecting to love. They went way too Broadway with it, and that's not the style of music that worked so great for them in the 90's. I hate that they were just singing the dialogue at many points. I want real sing a long songs from a Disney movie, not Les Mis musical dialogue recitals. Let It Go and that Troll song were the only two that were more traditional, but then those felt kinda forgettable too. I honestly give the music a D-, bordering on an F. My least favorite Disney animation soundtrack since I don't know when. On the plus side I did think the animation was drop dead gorgeous, particularly during the Let It Go number. WDA seems every bit as talented as Pixar these days in that department. Overall, I give this a C+. My least favorite WDA film since Chicken Little. Hey Hey Movie man I agree with your entire review, music is very forced and does not fit in well seemlessly like the 90s era of Disney and other eras.. And yep the let it go sequence is the best of the film animation wise and as close as they come to making a memorable sequence in the 2000s I disagree that Tangled was better. hell no. Still this is not the best of the WDA era of the 2000s. That in my opinion belongs to Incredibles because of the quality and Finding Nemo. I also liked Princess and the Frog, but the story was not as good as other handdrawn epics , nor were the visuals on par with TLK, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin for instance.

Goffe Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 ....huh? visuals ≠ animation. Visually beautiful, bad animation (texture, modeling, movements.... all that stuff). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb007 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 My daughter loved it. I was completely bored. I'm certainly not among the target audience for the movie. C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazel Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 D- The plot was weak,the characters under developed particularly Elsa and Kristoff. Only one song was memorable,thought most of them was out of place and to top it off the film was rushed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxOfficeZ Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 After all the hype finally got around to seeing it. I thought it was kinda generic for a Disney film, besides the excellent musicals, though some of them got kinda repetitive. I guess one problem I had was that the story was pretty predictable, and once Kristoff showed up, I knew immediately that Hans would turn out to be the bad guy. I'm kinda mixed on the protagonist. The true love ending was great. Visuals were lovely. Olaf I enjoyed as a character, and it was kinda shot where he was completely out of place which was great. Also the march to go find the queen was classic Wizard of Oz group of 4 people. B+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Ill give this movie a D, however my opinion is bias because I really cant stand musicals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I give this film zero out of five stars. It has singing in it. I haven't seen the film yet so this is a placeholder review until I never get around to seeing it, because again, it has singing in it. Glad to contribute to the thread.

Dan9 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Well, I find it hard to trust someone's opinion if they don't like Mary Poppins. Which being a musical has a lot of songs and singing in it, so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omario Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Just finished watching it. I enjoyed it. Really good songs. Nice visuals and fun characters. Story wasnt as compelling though. Snow Queen story is one of my favourites and would have liked to see them be a tad more faithful than make it completely different. Still really good movie. Prefer Tangled a bit more though.
