题目内容:
The Oscar - winning 2013 musical Frozen, inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen, followed the tale of two princess sisters, Elsa and Anna. They were forced to grow up isolated from each other and the world because of Elsa’s potentially dangerous magic ability to control ice. The film earned an amazing $1.27 billion box office worldwide, and fans were so charmed by the characters-that they weren’t able to “Let It Go”, crazily calling for a sequel (续集).
Finally, Frozen II comes into its fans’ eyes. However, the beginning of Frozen II is not convincing, largely because it overturns much of the character development Anna and Elsa went through in the first movie. At the end of Frozen, Elsa had learned that her powers were a gift, and she had become confident and proud in using them. At the beginning of Frozen II, that confidence is gone.
Whatever technical advancements have been made in computer animation over the past six years aren’t readily apparent in Frozen II. It mostly has the same frosty look as the first film. A sea battle between Elsa and a glowing ice horse leaves the most striking impression on the audience.
The biggest failure? The music. In Frozen, even the throwaway songs enjoyed great popularity, let alone the theme song Let It Go. Returning composers Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez try to give Elsa two showstopping numbers: Into the Unknown and Show Yourself. But neither song reaches any emotional heights. (Never mind that there really isn’t a show to stop.)
Yes, Frozen II is a letdown to most audience, especially the fans of the original. It’s hard to see how the same team who made something so cool in 2013 could deliver something so-there’s no other word for it-lukewarm.
