Review: I had to wait for so long to watch this movie and it was so hard having to wait.

What an amazing movie that they made though, sequels especially Disney ones are not always very good but this is one of the exceptions. Though it wasn’t perfection it was incredibly close to it.

I loved Anna’s development she grew so much stronger in between the two movies and she was the true hero of this movie, what she did was incredible. All the weight of her people and their new found ancestors was all on her, plus going through the loss of Elsa and Olaf and that she and Kristiff got separated all at the same time. Literally everything was relying on her to fix it all, save them all and unite two kingdoms. What an incredible and inspiring character she is.

Elsa annoyed me some in this movie I didn’t like how she was treating Anna, she should know Anna can solve any issue, the two of them are connected for a reason and she just pushed her away into danger without a care about it. I understand and actually liked the element of her trying to find who was summoning her and that she had to figure it out, learning her true meaning of her powers. However she just rushed into everything and didn’t consider anyone else while doing it, nor what could happen to her and everyone else by doing it.

I loved the songs in this movie and had been listening to them as soon as the soundtrack came out, but it was nice having context to these songs. There were some that were certainly a lot darker though this time. I still utterly loved them all and they were still so beautiful and meaningful.

The movie itself took on a darker tone, it dealt with mental health and again death. It had such an intriguing story and I love that we got to know more history of their parents. We saw a new side of both Elsa and Anna, many new characters, it was action packed and was such a fun movie. I liked the twists in it, though some was predictable too. It was very well made.

I wouldn’t say I loved it more than the first one though, not at all. But it was such a good movie and I loved it so much still, I’m so glad have finally watched it.
