- Honest Trailers quipped about the original being a feature-length music video for Let It Go... and here it seems like Disney has adopted a tactic of trying to throw a bunch of songs in an attempt to get at least one of them to stick a la Let It Go (even https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMNG2_4sYaA#t=133 seems to think so LOL) to the point where this film almost feels like it's half music videos... At least the songs are decent to good
even if not as memorable as Let It Go, or even Build a Snowman or For the First Time in Forever... (Incidentally, I didn't listen to the songs first, so the first time I heard the songs were in their proper context, as part of the movie)
- Plotline revolving around the classical elements: I've seen people compare it to
Avatar (as in Aang) and
Captain Planet, but the first thing I thought of was
W.i.t.c.h. 
Seems like they've also been cribbing some plot turns from
Once Upon a Time as well... Plot is serviceable, though not as remarkable as the original (though that's to be expected of sequels I suppose)
- Sure looks the film likes reliving past glories, between Olaf retelling the sisters' "backstory"
, an in-story performance of Vuelie (aka the first film's opening theme), and Elsa walking past "ice statues" of past events (even punching a Hans statue
)
- Characters: None of the new characters really made much of an impression on me
And I'm probably the only one thinking this, but I'm guessing either Chris "Oaken" Williams left Disney, or they really couldn't find much of a role for his wacky merchant
(Checks out Wikipedia) Turns out he left last year for Netflix...
- At the screening I attended (standard 2D, only had 3D in Imax here), the biggest laughs came from Olaf, not surprisingly, especially him trying to mimic Elsa making "that voice"
