So yeah, there's gonna be spoilers, so if 你 haven't watched it I recommend leaving now. BYE! Anyway, in this review I'll go over the characters, soundtrack, animation, and story line. This review is probably gonna be really positive since I absolutely loved the movie, but I'll try and keep a level head and give some of the bad points in this review as well. So lets get started!
The Characters
Let's start off with the most important thing to me, the characters. A movie's plot can be terrible, but if I'm with a great character during that time, I can endure it, and Frozen's characters definitely don't disappoint.
Anna: I can definitely see the similarities between Anna and Rapunzel; both have big highs, and low lows (more so with Rapunzel), and both are crazy (more so with Anna) Although I feel that Anna is a pretty original character. She's very organic, and is probably one of the most human characters 迪士尼 has ever produced; she has quirks, like for example always sliding around the 城堡 in her socks, and she is awkward and lovable. At times annoying, she can be too much, but I 爱情 her spunk and attitude.
Elsa: Elsa seems to be the 星, 星级 of the show, and it's obvious why. 迪士尼 has never created a character quite like her, and seeing her perspective was a very unique way of looking at things. 你 can't help but feel for Elsa in Do 你 Want To Build A Snowman when 你 see her on the other side in complete snow, obviously so beyond hurt and alone. She's just such a tragic character that really deserved her happy ending. The thing I 爱情 about the two main leads is how well they compliment each other, and how much I relate to both of them. Anna is one extreme of me; crazy, awkward, and unrefined. We both desperately wish for more, and are often disappointed, while Elsa is the other extreme of me. The anti-social, alone part of me that doesn't wish to be around anyone. I think it's nice how 迪士尼 included a character for both personality types.
Kristoff: Kristoff in my opinion is the best "prince" 迪士尼 has ever created. It feels strange calling him a prince because he seems as far from it as possible. He's not conventionally handsome, he's definitely unrefined, he's arguably crazy, and apparently he smells AND picks his nose. Woo, that's a lot. I 爱情 how 迪士尼 has finally created a totally new character. I don't think I've seen a Kristoff character ever, and it's so refreshing. He's determined, caring, but also a large grump. I was actually going into the movie expecting him to be 更多 of a gentleman, and I was surprised to see how much of a grump they made him. It's nice to see 迪士尼 venture into new personality types.
Hans: Ahh, Hans. Where do I begin? He is arguably the best plot twist 迪士尼 ever had, and I absolutely 爱情 the scene where he confesses he doesn't 爱情 Anna. That was the perfect time for a 爱情 Is An Open Door (Reprise) with villain Hans in action, but 迪士尼 didn't do it...alas we expect Hans to be a sweet, classic prince, and he plays the part great, but in the end it comes too sudden, with no signs coming of it. Also, he's definitely not the smartest villain Disney's ever come up with, but alas the plot twist just makes me like him a lot!
Olaf: Olaf is great. His comedy is actually pretty funny, not laugh out loud, but better than 魔发奇缘 comedy. Mostly thanks to the amazing Josh Gad, who delivers EXCELLENT voice work for him! He's just such a fun character, even if a bit useless (though it's clear he does do things, i.e. points out the staircase, finds Anna, adds comedic relief so the film isn't too tense) Who could've been a terribly annoying presence actually brought some 心 to the screen, and I'm really glad 迪士尼 did that. OH AND I 爱情 HOW HE CALLS KRISTOFF SVEN THE ENTIRE TIME BECAUSE THAT SCENE WITH THE DONKEY AND OH MY GOSH.
Sven: Personally I loved Sven! New 最喜爱的 sidekick, not even joking. I didn't see the whole dog thing, just because he does stuff doesn't associate him as a dog! I 爱情 how he rolls his eyes at Kristoff's incompetence, and I 爱情 how they made him not talk. He was just a great character in my opinion, and I enjoyed him a lot 更多 than Maximus.
Oaken: OAKEN IS MY LIFE. Erm, excuse me. I'm sorry, but I just loved Oaken. First of all, HE HAD A NORWEGIAN ACCENT, well, not really, but at least 迪士尼 tried, and anyone on this club that knows me well enough knows how much I'd 爱情 that. His dialogue was great, and although he was only in one scene I really enjoyed him!
Duke of Weselton: Ehh, the only character I didn't really like. They tried to make him funny and it didn't work in my opinion, like idk his crazy dance moves were just annoying in my opinion, and he didn't add much except say dramatic catch phrases. He was just unnecessary and only put in to take the villain attention away from Hans in advertising.
The Soundtrack: I know that not all of 你 爱情 the soundtrack, but I 爱情 it soooo much! I'll go song 由 song and say how I feel, but it'll pretty much just me gushing over how good it is.
《冰雪奇缘》 Heart: I 爱情 this song! It's very traditional and similar to the songs at the beginning of Pocahontas and The Little Mermaid. The 动画片 in this song is beautiful, and I 爱情 watching baby Kristoff and Sven!
Do 你 Want To Build A Snowman?: Another amazing song. It's so heartbreaking, especially towards the end, and Anna's vocals at the end are absolutely beautiful. I 爱情 when we get to see Elsa on the other side and it's completely covered with snow and ice; it's just so sad.
For The First Time In Forever: This song is really energetic and fun. I 爱情 how Anna finally gets to be free, but it turns heartbreaking when 你 get to Elsa and her lyrics, since all she wants is for this 日 to be over.
爱情 Is An Open Door: IS THIS NOT THE SWEETEST THING OF ALL TIME 或者 WHAT. Even though it's 苦 sweet, since 你 know it's with Hans and all, but still. I 爱情 how they bump into each other, and how they hide together, and ugh! They're just great, and the song is really catchy. Definitely a 最喜爱的 of mine from the soundtrack.
Let It Go: The power song on the soundtrack, Let it Go is a great song. The lyrics are very empowering and it's nice to see Elsa finally, well, let it go. The 动画片 is great, and the scene is just powerful all around. Though, I feel it may be hyped a bit too high. It's great and all, but I've always enjoyed the 更多 underrated songs more.
Reindeer Are Better Than People: A short song sung 由 Kristoff, I though it was great! It's my least 最喜爱的 from the soundtrack, but only because it's so short. I 爱情 the relationship Kristoff has with Sven, and watching him sing for Sven was great.
In Summer: This song was great! The 动画片 was simplistic, but I'm pretty sure that was what the animators were going for, and, well, JOSH GAD. He literally makes Olaf, him and Olaf are one. I 爱情 the end note, and 总体, 整体 it's just a nice, lighthearted song.
For The First Time In Forever (Reprise): My personal 最喜爱的 from the soundtrack, I find this song amazing. The beginning is ok, but when Anna and Elsa both start 唱歌 at the same time that's when it gets amazing. It's just so powerful and watching the blizzard start to form and Elsa's note at the end. I just 爱情 this song.
Fixer Upper: The trolls are me, I am the trolls. I absolutely 爱情 the scene before this where Kristoff tries to put his arms around Anna, and they think his family is rocks, and the song definitely doesn't disappoint. I think that it's great that 迪士尼 found a way to give us a couple song, but in a new way. It would be unnatural for Kristoff and Anna to sing to each other; their relationship just doesn't work that way, so it was nice that we still got something. AND 由 THE WAY I DON'T SEE NO RING! Best. Line. Ever.
The Plot
As I've already said, plot isn't the most important thing to me, but of course it's still an important part. The plot is rushed, and many scenes could've been much longer. We should've seen 更多 of Elsa, but I think that we did get to see a lot actually. All of the Kristoff and Anna scenes were very humorous, and then whenever we saw Elsa it was heartbreaking, which added nice contrast. All and all, the plot had it's weak points, but was action packed, funny, and heartwarming. Yeah....not very much to say about plot..
Conclusion
In conclusion, 《冰雪奇缘》 was great. Ten out of ten for me, and a new 迪士尼 classic in my opinion. It was reminiscent of a Dreamworks movie, but the great characters and emotion of the movie save it for me. Anna is a great, realistic character, Elsa is unique and heartbreaking, Kristoff is really fun and unique as well, and all the other supporting characters were great as well. The soundtrack and 动画片 are also extremely beautiful. I 爱情 how Elsa's ice powers change color and form due to her emotion. When she's scared, they're yellow, angry, red. All of the details of this movie, Anna 袜子 sliding, Olaf calling Kristoff Sven make the movie for me, and I definitely can't wait to watch it again! :)
Thanks for 阅读 everyone. I hope 你 all enjoyed. Sorry for the lack of pictures, I'm lazy and have an 8 page paper I should be working on, among other things XD

Evermore
I first heard Josh Groban's rendition of this wonderful song, he nailed the song perfectly and I heard it played twice at the lobby at my hotel in Hanoi, Vietnam on way back to the airport twice.
Initially, I thought he was going to dub Dan Stevens,until I heard the latter. Prompting me to surprise and that he followed his Downton Abbey costar, Lily James who played the 标题 character in the 2015 reboot of Cinderella.
How Does A Moment Last Forever?
Upon listening to this song 由 Celine Dion, I felt that this song really 《金装律师》 my personality as well as my relationship with my family.
I 爱情 how Maurice sang a short reprise at the beginning, it really explores his character more. This is something that I really cherish!
Which Way?
So, which of these 2 songs are your favourites?
1. Bergamasca (Marco Ucellini)
This 音乐 will be best, especially for the 3 classical princesses. It is very gentle and smooth when they dance with their princes.
2. Johann Strauss II's Waltzes
In fact, many of his waltz are quite 流行的 and it would definitely be 流行的 among the princesses themselves.
3. Joseph Lanner's Die Schonbrunner Waltz
Initially, I thought that it was 撰写 由 Strauss, but it is actually his rival Joseph Lanner.
4. Frederick Chopin's Waltz Music
I also 爱情 his music, his waltz is also another favourite for the 迪士尼 Princesses themselves.
A Toast!
Do 你 agree with my choice, if 你 do go ahead and listen to them.
Prince Ali, yes it is he
But not as 你 know him
Read my lips and come to grips with reality
Yes, meet a blast from your past
Whose lies were too good to last
Say hello to your precious Prince Ali!
So Ali turns out to be merely Aladdin
Just a con, need I go on?
Take it from me
His personality flaws
Give me adequate cause
To send him packing on a one-way trip
So his prospects take a terminal dip
His assets frozen, the venue chosen
Is the ends of the earth - whoopee!
So long, ex-Prince Ali!
But not as 你 know him
Read my lips and come to grips with reality
Yes, meet a blast from your past
Whose lies were too good to last
Say hello to your precious Prince Ali!
So Ali turns out to be merely Aladdin
Just a con, need I go on?
Take it from me
His personality flaws
Give me adequate cause
To send him packing on a one-way trip
So his prospects take a terminal dip
His assets frozen, the venue chosen
Is the ends of the earth - whoopee!
So long, ex-Prince Ali!
