One of the most mature Disney fairytales, where the twist is not far away and proof that the display case of legendary princesses even has room for two new members. Elsa and Anna are two adorable creatures, one with her fateful loneliness ("Let it go...") and the other with boundless honesty ("Could it be this way...?"), and despite the charisma or lines of the supporting characters, the kingdom relies entirely on their relationship. And thanks to them and the usual top musical numbers led by "For the First Time in Forever", the score is a rich one and the product of careful consideration. Frozen is definitely not flawless and it falls half a step short compared to my most beloved pieces (including the oft-mentioned Tangled), but it is not worth underestimating the animated event of the year. For some, it is worth melting for. Without hesitation. (2014.02.17)

I kind of think that it must be the musical aspect of Frozen that overshadows all else. Precisely because of it I was looking forward to this movie and in the end it is just this musical aspect that makes this movie somewhat good. The animation is just average. On top of that, for a fairy tale, the story line is quite confusing. (2019.12.25)

Strangely built. In the first half, nothing at all happens. There are too many songs in every other scene and they seem unnatural and forced (just a regular musical with questionable quality of production) to finally start something in the second half (such as Hans Christian Andersen à la Disney) and suddenly the songs start disappearing until they disappear completely (final half an hour). Beautifully styled and thanks to the second half even more for boys than one would expect from a "princess fairy tale with way to many songs". Which, in any case, does not change the fact that it is undoubtedly more for the girls, and the role of the male characters, which are clearly in numbers here (perhaps except for Olaf and the reindeer), corresponds to this.

I’m not claiming that animated films for kids should be supported by a logically bulletproof story, but bugger me, if I’m already squeezing such a complicated plot, I would make damn sure that it makes sense at least within its basic framework, but in Frozen I said WTF way too often. Yet I won’t deny that I had some solid popcorn fun. Officially, only three stars for the film, the fourth is for “Let It Go” :-) (2014.01.19)

A cute fairy tale and probably a well-deserved Oscar. There are too many songs for my taste, but the central one is very cool. Visually, the film is great, there is a typical twist and a pretty emotional finale, so definitely above average, although I am not the target audience and there could have been more humour... 75% (2018.10.31)
