After six years, the sequel to the extremely successful animated Disney movie Frozen has finally made an appearance!! Frozen II brings us characters old and new, where we see new relationships form and old relationships progress into something a little more serious... NO!! I am not going to give you ANY spoiler alerts!! You shall just have to go and see the movie for yourself! Read this first though, please!! 

By November 30th 2019, Frozen II had made approximately $651 million worldwide. 

As many Disney fans are aware, the American diversified multinational mass media and entertainent conglomerate loves to add a few "Easter eggs" to lots of their movies and shows, and Frozen II is no different. Look out for Baymax in the beginning when a young Anna and Elsa are playing Enchanted Forest with Elsa's magical snow, and don't miss Olaf's Mickey Mouse in their family game of charades.

Let It Go, Elsa's (Idina Menzel's) solo song, composed by husband-and-wife songwriting team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, has been called 'musical crack' which 'sends kids into altered states' by columnist Yvonne Abraham, as well as a 'musical epidemic sweeping the nation, relentessly gathering up every child ... in it's cult-like grip'. However, Frozen II brings it's viewers a new solo song from Queen Elsa, this time even stronger than the original movie's classic. 

Idina Menzel, voice actor of Elsa and singer of both Let It Go and Into The Unknown, said on The One Show when replying to 'I think absolutely everybody knows the track Let It Go from the first film - it's epic. Going into this new movie, would you say that there's a song or songs that rival that one', 'Let It Go is it's own thing and is sort of a gift horse, a gift horse from the mouth, but yes, I think there's a lot of incredible music and we're really lucky that we've had the Lopez's, who wrote all the music for the Frozen, write music for us'.

Into The Unknown, recorded by Aurora as well as Idina Menzel, has received both Satellite Award and Golden Globe Award nominations for Best Original Song. It was presented to the public as the "Let It Go of Frozen II", but it has been argued that whilst it was intended to receive the same love and popularity as it's predecessor, children may not accept it as such a successful hit as the first one.

Despite this, Frozen II is one of the best sequels I have seen in a long time that still has the same feel as the first film. Whilst Mary Poppins returns is one of my favourite films, and I do enjoy the nods toward Mary Poppins, it could easily be it's own original film as audiences do not feel the same way watching this as they do watching the original movie. However, Frozen II, I would argue, is even better than Frozen (except for the songs - although they are absolutely fantastic, I don't think anything will ever beat Let It Go or For The First Time In Forever), whilst still maintaining the same kind of magic and joy that the first motion picture of the franchise brings.

Frozen II sees Elsa and the gang off to an Enchanted Forest that has been cursed since the girls' grandfather died decades ago. This movie is set in the Autumn/Fall in the same year as the Summer of Frozen.

As with the original film, Olaf voice actor Josh Gad created many of his character's lines himself. 'There's so many times that they just let me go wild and I'm laughing at the absurdity that I'm getting to do the crazy things that they're allowing me to do'. Gad has also played LeFou in the 2017 live-action version of Beauty and the Beast, and Elder Cunningham in the original Broadway musical The Book of Mormon.

The film has been in the making since November 2014, and was finally finished in 2019. It was created because producer Peter Del Vecho, Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee realised when creating short film Frozen Fever how much they missed the characters. Also, fans kept pushing for it.

Now, we finally have our beloved characters back and we once again feel the magic that was slowly starting slip away six years after the first one. Five stars from me - honestly, Disney has done such an amazing job on this one; it is DEFINITELY worth a watch (I had seen it twice within a week after it's relase date)!!
