Elsa (Idina Menzel – Glee) has special powers linked to her emotions and has inadvertently sunk the kingdom of Arendelle into an eternal winter. Ashamed and scared, she flees into exile. Her sister Anna (Kristen Bell \u2013 Veronica Mars) seeks to help, so she begins a treacherous quest with a mountaineer named Kristoff (Jonathan Groff \u2013 Glee) and a talking snowman named Olaf (Josh Gad \u2013 Marmaduke) to find Elsa and bring her back home.<\/p>\n
Similar to their 2010 masterpiece Tangled, Frozen thaws even the coldest of hearts with a wonderful tale of two sisters, loosely based on Hans Christian Andersen\u2019s The Snow Queen. Frozen is Disney\u2019s 53rd animated feature-film and holds with it a lot of expectation.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n Tangled, Disney\u2019s 50th<\/sup>, was a triumph of epic proportions with the studio having delivered their best work since their second golden age in the early 90\u2019s. Tangled easily held its own against the likes of The Lion King, Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast. Frozen sits somewhere in-between. It has all the hallmarks of an instant classic that enchants you from start to finish. Frozen will make you laugh, cry and sing but it just fails to beat Tangled as the studio\u2019s most accomplished piece of modern work.<\/p>\n Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel share a wonderful chemistry as Anna and Elsa that completely hooks you in from the start. The two personify a classic, sisterly relationship and have fun with all of the banter and circumstance that this brings. A hallmark of classic Disney is the ability to make you sad and happy in a single shot. The nature of their relationship and Elsa\u2019s constant fear for the well-being of Anna is sincerely heartfelt and really gets to you, especially towards the end of the film. Both Bell and Menzel are a huge factor in the success of Frozen.<\/p>\n
