Frozen (2013) | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Hannah Strom Bitch Media I felt like Frozen was a mixed bag: not as bad as I feared it would be, but not as fun to watch as Tangled or as subversive as Brave. Jan 20, 2021 Full Review Frozen (2013) | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Candice Frederick Reel Talk Online ... Frozen, the newest Disney contribution directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, falls a bit short. Rated: B- Sep 6, 2017 Full Review Frozen (2013) | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Roxana Hadadi Punch Drunk Critics The songs aren't good enough to stick in your head and the characters aren't good enough to be iconic, but Frozen is pleasant enough. May it have a long life on ABC Family, clogging up your weekend TV holiday schedule for years to come. Rated: 3/5 Jan 9, 2017 Full Review Frozen (2013) | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson It is an emotionally strong departure and far more meaningful affair from the usual good-versus-evil simplicity of other animated efforts. Rated: 3/5 Oct 13, 2024 Full Review Frozen (2013) | Rotten Tomatoes (5) JD Duran InSession Film The musical choices are great and the visuals they create to go along with it are absolutely stunning. It has all the sillyness and fun you’d expect from a film like this and it’s hard to not like it. Rated: A Aug 19, 2024 Full Review Frozen (2013) | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Diana Tuova Spotlight on Film The plot is thin, the characters...are annoying, and their motivations are puzzling...It does not help that the "villain" here is vague, and the benevolent characters never complete their "hero’s journeys". Rated: 3/5 Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Kara Great characters, lots of humor, and heart paired with beautiful music, animation, and story. A perfect movie. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/17/23 Full Review Robert This is absolutely amazing. I can’t thank whoever’s idea it was enough to show this in theaters. My daughter enjoyed this movie on the screen at home for the longest time so being able to share this with her at the movie theater was truly something special. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/13/23 Full Review Johnathan Movie holds up fairly well after 10 years. A timeless Disney classic. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/06/23 Full Review Brian Saw it for the first time on the Disney 100 year anniversary re-release and really enjoyed it.. I get why little girls are still dressing up as these characters and singing their songs despite being born after the film’s release. Disney doesn’t make them like they used to. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/05/23 Full Review Nick R It's honestly a fine movie, but has been ruined for me at least for being insanely overhyped. In the grand scheme of things though, the music is more annoying than good (yes I am mainly talking about 'Let It Go') and the plot twist is pathetic for Disney. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review molly k The animation of that is a nightmare. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/13/24 Full Review Read all reviews
