MY REVIEW:

This movie was breathtaking. The overall cinematography was great and it showed how Anna and Elsa became even closer than in the first movie. The relationship built between these two siblings is heartwarming. The journey they take through the enchanted forest with their closest friends Olaf, Kristoff, and Sven really shows how friendships bond people together. Their showmanship throughout the movie was just really a wonderful thing. Elsa, for example, is shown a lot more throughout the second film than she was in the first. The conclusion to the film was really great; it exposed the truth of the whole storyline throughout both movies. The introduction of new characters was great and many of them played into the storyline perfectly.

However, I wish that they included more about the other characters and their storylines. The overall movie could have been a little more detailed. For example, Sven’s storyline – I would have liked to learn more about him. The first movie gives a brief picture of how he and Kristoff were taken in by the “love experts”, the Trolls. But in the 2nd movie his storyline wasn’t a factor at all. But overall the film was very impressive and enjoyable.

My Rating: 8/10
