‘Frozen’ Review
Are you wondering what movie you should watch next? You can stop wondering because I have the
perfect movie for you. You should go watch Frozen right now even if you have already seen it! It is a
2013 American musical fantasy film, produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios.
The film depicts a princess who sets off on a journey alongside an iceman, his reindeer and a snowman
to find her sister, whose icy powers have inattentively trapped their kingdom in eternal winter.
Furthermore, the best thing about it is that it also has a lot of cool characters like Olaf, the Snowman and
Sven, the reindeer.
The best thing about this movie is that the characters go on really cool adventures, including a journey to
a magical ice castle! Frozen was praised for its visuals, screenplay, themes, music and voice acting as
well. It has some really catchy songs that you will end up singing along to. Some film critics consider
Frozen to Disney’s best animated film; this film has won a significant number of major awards. In fact,
the film was a memorable commercial success, earning $1.280 billion in worldwide box office revenue.
There is no doubt, my favourite character of them all was loyal Olaf.
As a conclusion, I highly recommend the movie Frozen - especially to those who love fantasy. You should
watch this awesome, entertaining, highly-uplifting movie because it will have you on the edge of your
seat till the last moment. Trust me you will truly like it! I give Frozen five stars *****
