[movie review] "Frozen" (2013)
Not evil. Visually gorgeous, and kinda emotionally incoherent, but not evil.
PSA: Parents! Making your child neurotically uptight about their laran will not make them better able to contol it! That is always the wrong answer!
Can we just, like, get that meme out there?
More thoughts:
It is worth the price of admission to see the "Let It Go" segment on the big screen, it truly is.
Unfortunately, it feels like it was spliced in from a much more wonderful movie, which I'd love to see some day. Elsa steals every scene she's in.
There's conceptual multi-car pile-up on the cloverleaf of the plot, compliments of simultaneously wanting to tell a story fetishizing the Power Of Love and wanting to be realistic about human relationships. (They called the movie "Frozen" because you would not believe the amount of refrigerator logic.) But we're all ignoring that because at the romantic climax, the male love interest asks the protagonist's permission to kiss her. Yay!
The character formula: does Disney know they're doing that? Do they have some scientific research that demonstrates that they won't make as much money if they don't have an irritating "funny" talking-animal/object side-kick? Or is a union obligation or something?
