“Do you wanna build a snowman?” A common question asked by children during winter. They put on their coats, boots, gloves, hats, and scarves and run out the door to play in the freshly fallen snow. But in Disney’s newest movie, Frozen, the simple question, “do you wanna build a snowman?” takes on a brand new meaning.
Frozen introduces two new princesses, Ana and Elsa, to the Disney family.The movie begins by introducing Ana and Elsa as young children, showing off Elsa’s power to freeze things. Hence young Ana’s question “do you wanna build a snowman?” But something goes wrong while the girls are playing, creating a problem that carries the rest of the movie.
While the problem continues to manifest during the movie, other wonderful characters make their appearances. These include a prince, a reindeer, a snowman, and other great mythological creatures that you’ll fall in love with. They all add comic relief that will make you laugh along with all the little kids in the audience. The other great thing about each and every character is how well they are developed and how easy it is to relate to them.
It’s great because unlike many other princess movies Frozen doesn’t center around romance. (Although romance does play a part, and you may fall in love with a fee fictional characters.) Instead, it follows the story of the two sisters as they find their way back to each other and save their home.
The music in the movie has also been raved about about by many.
“The songs are great! They are both inspirational and relatable; they make you want to sing along!” Senior Rachel Phinney said.
Frozen features the voices of Idina Menzel, popular from the broadway musical Wicked, and Kristen Bell. The music truly is outstanding, as is the movie as a whole. Frozen will probably become a classic Disney movie along with Lion King and Mulan. Senior Madeline Butler attests to this fact.
“I love Frozen because I think it’s amazing how Disney has been around forever but instead of burning out, their movies only get better and better.”
Frozen is a must see for all ages. No one is too good for it. If you’re in for a good laugh, a good cry, or just a good movie in general, take an hour and a half to go see Frozen this Christmas break. You won’t regret it.
And hey, maybe it will even inspire you to build your own snowman.
