It's got a couple good songs, nothing on a "Let it Go" level but Elsa's two songs are still very good. The water effects are lovely, and some of the new creatures are imaginative and beautiful.
To start with what I liked, holy crap the movie is gorgeous. Some of those things weren't bad, but none of them were great. That's the thing, one of the better direct-to-dvd sequels. Honestly the whole thing feels like one of the better Disney direct-to-dvd sequels. It was charming, beautiful, and brought something that was at the time fresh and new for the Disney formula. While not as good as the first, it's still a film you will want to take your family to and is a great addition to the Frozen franchise.Even as a childless adult, I loved the first Frozen. Overall, I'd say this film found success in what it was trying to achieve and the message it was trying to send to its viewers, but couldn't quite live up to the whimsicality of the original. I do think this film will still appeal to many others and I, myself, am still very excited to watch it a second time. I also find irony in the fact that this film centers around change and the overall feel of the film felt like a major shift from the first. Sure there were still plenty of humorous moments, but I personally felt myself longing for more. With the more dramatic path the writers chose to take, also came more epic musical numbers and effects. I think the writing team missed the mark when trying to achieve the same quirkiness from the original. The story, for me, felt a little flat, however. Throughout the film, I found myself dazzled with the quality and beauty of the visuals that the animation team laid out. This story heavily centers around the importance of change, even if that means letting go. While the first film was brimming with quirky moments, the follow up feels a little more mature in its plot and themes. I, as well as many others, am a huge fan of the first film and the short films that followed it. It's not hard to imagine how big this movie will be.
