So I just watched Frozen... It was pretty good. Nothing fantastic, but good.

While it does a lot better than Tangled, Tangled was a simple fun love story, and the simplicity worked to its advantage incredibly well. Frozen gave the illusion of branching out, but sort of stayed restricted. I did like a lot of the ideas, the animation is top-notch, voice acting was the best I've heard in an animated movie in a long time, the creativity was admirable, the characters were original, fun, and likable, the songs ranged from fantastic (Let It Go) to really bad (Fixer Upper, or whatever it was called), it had a lot of maturity, though some immaturity as well, and has an amazing atmosphere.

I don't like the tone shifts, the character moods swing often, and it gets irritating, the theme of "Two people meet, fall in love" seemed to be avoided for a bit, but by the end was revisited, and felt really f*cking patronizing, again the Fixer Upper song was not only unfunny but irritating, finding flaws in a character who already had his own quirks, and while the film is incredibly mature, well made, atmospheric, fun, and overall incredible in a lot of aspects, it fails in so much as well.

I was debating the rating, but I decided to give it a 7/10. I do want to see a sequel, but only if they can progress the story in a way that doesn't feel forced, or unrelated to the first. Plus, Olaf. I thought he was going to be awful. I adored him.
