The new animated film “Frozen 2” premiered in theaters November 22. This movie is a sequel to the first “Froze”n film which was released November 27, 2013. The film features Queen Elsa and her sister Princess Anna as the main characters. Queen Elsa is known for her magical powers that allow here to control the cold (thus the name “Frozen”). 

Idina Menzel plays the character Elsa in the film. India does a great job at being the voice of the character, as she can clearly portray how the character feels in the way that she talks. 

Kristen Bell plays the character  Anna in the film (Elsa’s younger sister). Her voice also fits her character well, and allows the audience to fully grasp the tone of the scenes. 

The movie although having to do with magical/mythical powers, of course has a deeper meaning. The deeper meaning being that sisters or family, is extremely important and should be there through all your imperfections or problems. 

In the first “Frozen” film Elsa runs away from the kingdom and everyone believes that she has been cursed and that her powers are a sin. Anna her sister decides to journey off by herself and find her sister, because she knows how her Elsa must’ve felt and how scared she was. Anna after staying in her home for years leaves the kingdom defenseless and has no idea what’s to come. When Elsa is in distress Anna risks her life, as she stands in front of a blade to save her sisters life, risking her own. The tables are switched and there is one way to save Anna (true love), of course the audience believes this involves true love with a man, but that’s not the case here. In this case true love was Anna and her sister as Elsa truly loved her sister and Anna truly loved hers. The love that they had for each other saved each other. 

That is why the film is appealing to most audiences. It can appeal to the younger generations as well as the older ones in a way that most films wouldn’t. 

New songs were put in the film they could only be described as catchy as they pull the audience in and make them sing along. 

The movie also appealed to the imagination of the children that watched it, as the animations were as detailed as they could be for an animated film.
