For their 53rd canon movie, Disney managed to produce a really cool film. This film instantly hit home with me and will from now on hold a special place in my heart. How do I describe this film in words? There's hardly anything I can say without giving anything away, and you literally don't have to know anything about this movie beforehand to know that it's worth seeing. If you haven't seen it yet, you're missing out on a cool experience that you will regret down the road. This is Disney at its finest. This is Disney at the quality it had during its renaissance, sans the hand-drawn animation (which is the only thing missing from an otherwise perfect film).
I am confident that this will go down as one of their greats. Seeing this was an event, and I was very happy to see that the theatre was filled with parents and their children. And yes, for the record, this film is worth seeing no matter what age you are. If you're in your twenties and think you're too cool for animation, just remember that The Lion King and Hercules and Toy Story probably still hold a special place in your heart, and this film is like them.
Furthermore, I had not seen a single trailer for this film. All I knew in advance was that there was a snowman, a reindeer, a magical winter, that it was computer-animated, and that it was Disney. Then I heard the reviews, and I knew that Disney had put their heart into this. It was worth seeing. I sacrificed a Black Friday to see this thing, and it was so worth it for the memories. I am also truly glad to say that I watched it not only with my mother and sisters, but also with my Godfather and his little kids. When we were outside of the theatre, we spent hours talking about the film and all of our favorite parts, since there was never a moment of the film that wasn't memorable. What can I say? It was magical.
Perhaps the best thing I can do to convince you to see this, to prove to you that this is truly classic Disney, is to advertise the brilliant song that defined the film. If you don't want to listen to it because you know you want to see the film, that's probably a good thing, but if you need convincing, look it up and know that, yes, the rest of the film is that good. There are many songs throughout the film, and most of them were memorable. They stuck in my head. People are going to be singing them years down the road with other Disney songs. My sisters, my cousins, and I found ourselves singing many of the songs when we were out of the theater, including "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" But we especially sang "Let It Go", which was the highlight of the film, hits close to home, and will likely win many a heart as a brand new favorite. At risk of degenerating to the level of proclaiming commonly used advertisement quotes, that song was "a triumph!"
