Disney
Animation attempts to emulate their classic animated musicals with
“Frozen,” an adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s “The
Snow Queen,” but comes up a little, well, cold.
“The
Snow Queen” is prime real estate for a Disney adaptation, and this
musical features a few unexpected plot twists, but it is dimmed by
lackluster humor and a rushed structure not as cohesive as previous
Disney films.
However,
“Frozen” does modernize the Disney princess meme by turning the
vulnerable princess and prince charming story on its head. All the
stereotypes are here, but “Frozen” puts them on ice. Rather than
focusing on a princess who can only be saved by a prince, the film
tackles a different type of love-- the power of a sisterly bond.
Elsa
(Idina Menzel) and Anna (Kristen Bell) are sisters gifted with the
magical ability to create and manipulate ice. As young girls they
innocently use their magic to play games, until an accident almost
kills Anna. To save young Anna, a pack of trolls removes her magic
and memories, giving her a new lease on life. Elsa, though, is
confined to a life of solitude to protect herself and her family from
her reckless powers, a decision that keeps her from seeing Anna for
many years.
