First things first, Frozen 2 is darker, more mature, and more emotionally complicated than the first #Frozen. Which makes sense because 6 years on, the little ones who were enamoured with the first movie have grown up and are more emotionally mature. And this is also probably the reason why the kids rate the sequel even BETTER than the first!
There is no villianeous foe to combat this time around. Instead, the movie wisely focuses on the characters and their personal development. And that is what makes them so endearing to the audience. Olaf still has the best and funny lines - the segment where he summarizes the first movie is hilarious and well worth the ticket price alone. No kidding.
Songs-wise, let me just say it was always going to be a tall order to hit the heights of the songs from the first movie. The #Frozen2 songs are not as catchy but there are still gems. Stand-outs include Elsa's 'Into the Unknown' and Olaf's funny 'When I Am Older'. But my personal fave is Kristoff’s song, 'Lost in the Woods' which is fashioned like a Peter Cetera-era Chicago power ballad (if you're as old as me to know 😂), complete with a 90s-style boyband music video... with reindeer singing in unison, Queen-style no less! It may have flew over the heads of the kids but I think the adults will love the references. 😀
Definite a must-watch with the kids this school holidays, Frozen 2 opens in cinemas on 21 Nov 2019. Oh, and stay all the way til the end because there's a post-credit scene!
