Frozen 2: Heartwarming or "a dire case of cynical sequelitis"?

Ahead of Frozen 2 cinema release on 22 November Film Critics have given their verdict. 6 years on from the original, Frozen 2 is almost here.

The sequel melted hearts of some people whereas rest remained cool about Anna and Elsa's latest adventure.

Robbie Collin of 'The Telegraph' said its generous and charming film which hit all right notes.

On the other side, Vanity Fair's Richard Lawson diagnosed Disney with "a dire case of cynical sequelitis".

He stated that, "From my sorry adult view, this sequel is entirely unnecessary, except in its duty to serve the needs of capital."

With the business of $1.27bn (£986m) at global box offices, Frozen became a phenomenon in 2013 and it was also the most successful animated film ever.

Empire magazine's Ben Travis also awarded four stars, saying the sequel "goes bigger, bolder, and more epic".

He wrote: "Where Frozen II does surpass its predecessor is in the jaw-dropping animation - one-moment involving water drawn from a plank of wood is near-photoreal. Elsewhere, the film is far more stylish and playful than the prosaic original."
