Disney
does like to pick up a story based on a fairy tale or myth of the children ,
this time of Hans Christian Andersen , The Snow Queen , which eventually
changed the title to " Frozen " , as synonymous with the season and
the theme . Producer Peter Del Velcho ( The Princess & the Frog ) and
others choose to appoint a co - director , after Chris Buck ( Pocahontas , Surf
Up ! ) Joined . Then elected Jennifer Lee who has often worked as writers and
screenplay ( Wreck - it- Ralph ) to become the second director in charge in
terms of story . The team created a drastic change from the original story ,
where the Snow Queen is not an antagonist , but the protagonist . Then the
story of brotherhood between men and women turn into sisterhood . With this
change , it is possible the emergence of two new Princess , as successor to the
milestone success of Princess Rapunzel Tangled passing ( 2010) were a great
success . Disney learned from that success, so we 'll find many similar elements
with Tangled .

FILM REVIEW
Frozen
story can be said to be interesting , because the theme of brotherhood among
women and not just love fairy tale prince and princess style like most . Even
the twist of betrayal Hans ( after they were singing a song that is so intimate
duet ) managed to make a big difference , plus when the main character chooses
to save his sister . Too bad storytelling Frozen weakened halfway , where the
flow slows down , started many dialogue scenes lifeless and empty the old ,
such as confusion to draw up the final story . Another downside is where Elsa
could not explain how they will have the strength , while Anna is not . Also
who is the little troll funny shaped rocks (not at all big and sinister troll
like it should) and their connection to the power Elsa ? If you remember again
, which led to Elsa shut down , which became the origin of the problem is when
Elsa Troll suggest to keep your distance and be careful . But they will not be
portrayed evil trolls in this movie , but based on reason , it is they cause
Elsa becomes foreign . Like the animated film , logical things like the need to
eat to live ( there are scenes only eat chocolate fondue and carrots ) and
sleep (which is just fainting ) is often not a concern . Even the logic of time
and distance does not appear in this film , which may only be noticed by an
adult audience .
The
characters that exist in more or less Frozen somewhat similar to descriptions
and formulas Tangled , especially Sven - deer -like dog that is reminiscent of
the horse Maximus . Apart from that , the characters are able to live in the
memory of the audience . Princess Anna energetic but sloppy , in contrast with
the Queen Elsa mature and graceful . Prince Hans who appeared like men dream of
all women , in contrast with the more populist Kristof : mediocre, messy ,
smelly , but sincere . Do not forget the imaginary creatures such as
Marshmallow , a large , sinister , and soft ( because of snow ) ; and Olaf who
should be given a role to evoke audience emotion about childhood Anna - Elsa ,
and not just be an adorable snowman .
MUSIC REVIEW
Musically
speaking , it is a common view that it is more prominent in the animated Disney
- Pixar musical than the more powerful in terms of story . So did the audience
will not get to cry because of the story , but will listen to his music touched
. The husband and wife Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson - Lopez worked to make
the lyrics and music of the original score by Christophe Beck created by Tim
Daviessebagai conductors and orchestration . Beck is not yet too inexperienced
to make music for the length animated film , but he has just won an award for
music in a short film Paperman . Music in Frozen much inspired by Norway and
the Sami culture , especially in the works of opening that is adapted from a
folk song . Beck and Davies works efficiently arguably musically , though not
particularly innovative , but many are performed with a simple melody as sweet
as the selection of instruments and the right time . In the section that should
be creepy , able to raise the tension without making children less frightened .
While
the Lopez family gathering song is very commercial and would like the community
. One song that touches the heart is " Do you want to build a snowman ?
" , Especially when little Anna said , "okay , bye " and then
imitated by the solo clarinet . The musical scene depicts changes in the age of
the characters , what they experience and they missed once. Alloy lyrics and
music are very smart . Kristen Bell was chosen as the voice of Anna Prince
after the production team heard the record cover songs of The Little Mermaid
when she was young . Besides " Love is an open door " is also a song
that is dynamic , because it could be considered rare Disney created a duet
love song with a lively tempo . Listeners woman could certainly fall in love
Fontana hear vocals that are not too good but feels " good-looking "
. Applause given to Idina Menzel , the Broadway veteran , managed to turn on
the song " Let It Go " , which made adjusting vocal range ,
although for some of the less familiar ear to be disturbed by the sound sharp
on the high registers . Demi Lovato also sang a cover version of " Let It
Go " with more modest . The song is arguably the most " catchy "
. To track Olaf , who missed the snowman and sang summer , raised a different
style to be refreshing number . Disney issued a Deluxe album which also serves
not only the song and original score , but also demo score, instrumental , and
the work is not so used .
Frozen
success on the box office , so we can be sure , the Princess still prevail in
the arena of world animation . A family -themed movie that is able to break the
ice and the atmosphere can be enjoyed by all walks of life . 8/10 for Frozen ,
both for the music and the movie itself .
