Gisteravond was de première van de vervolgfilm en online verschenen heel wat reacties. We doen een kleine greep daaruit en het beeld is meteen duidelijk. Het is een goed vervolg met goede muziek, maar een vervolg dat niet zo magisch is als de eerste film. En dat is vermoedelijk wat mensen ook wel verwacht hadden met dit nieuwe vervolg.
De eerste reacties
Frozen II laat zien hoe Anna, Elsa, Kristoff, Olaf en Sven het land Arendelle verlaten. Ze reizen naar een oeroud woud dat eeuwig in een staat van herfst verkeert. Daar hoopt de groep vrienden de oorsprong van Elsa's krachten te vinden, om zo het koninkrijk te redden. Vanaf 20 november in de bioscoop!
I can't believe I am saying this, but FROZEN 2 is better than its predecessor. Darker, a little more mature, but still an excellent film for families, the songs believe it or not are catchier, so parents beware. SEE THIS MOVIE! #Frozen2 pic.twitter.com/0RLKpckHWS

#Frozen2 is the rare sequel that surpasses the original. The scope is twice as staggering, the action twice as thrilling, the autocannibalism sequences twice as harrowing, the songs twice as catchy. Didn't think I needed a sequel to FROZEN, but turns out I was very, very wrong.

Loved #Frozen2. It's a darker, more complex and more emotionally mature story, continuing everything you love about the first movie and upping the ante while maintaining the intimacy of the original. Gorgeous animation, wonderful new characters and (FINALLY) a Kristoff song! ❄️ pic.twitter.com/ZB7Dyul6Ia

#Frozen2 is breathtakingly beautiful and leans in on empowerment for its characters. I cried at least 3 times. From the story to the last thread on Elsa's dress, the care and love put into it shows. And, good news, every one of Team Elsa gets at least one solo this time around.

#Frozen2 is good, of not as good as the first. It looks great and has delightful banter, but the story feels like "dark sequel" Mad Libs (without the courage of its convictions). With two exceptions, the songs aren't very good, playing as redundant "explain my motivation" tunes. pic.twitter.com/4cGa8wpKGH

#Frozen2 seems to exist primarily bc box office for Frozen 1 demanded a sequel, but there's still plenty to love here: eye-popping fantasy sequences, nice moments for your faves, LOTS of new songs incl the earworm-y "Into the Unknown," and an unbearably cute new critter pic.twitter.com/PHg80bc1Bp

Just got out of #Frozen2! It doesn't capture all the magic of the first, but it's got: Elsa in a wetsuit, Anna ugly crying, Sven ugly crying, Kristoff singing a '90s rock ballad, Olaf at his wisest, and... THIS GOOD BOY!! (We must protect him at all costs.) pic.twitter.com/a4WJ0k08Hs

I really, really liked FROZEN II. A movie that doesn't even try to have a traditional villain, but instead explores the fears of people, groups you haven't met yet. And what happens when you learn your own tragic truth.
