Frozen II review


Back in 2013 the original Frozen movie arrived and literally took the world by storm. You couldn't not hear ''Let It Go'' for months on end and overall it was an amazing piece of cinema. With it's sequel finally arriving 6 years later can it live up to it's older siblings giant shadow? All of our favorite characters are back in Frozen II and some are better than ever. The movie begins with a young Anna and Elsa being told the story of a long forgotten tribe who lived in a giant forest area by their father. His father who was the King of Arendelle worked in unison with the tribe but something eventually ends up happening which causes the four spirits of the world to close off the forest and surround it in a giant mist trapping everyone inside of it. So it's up to Elsa and her friends to find out just what happened and how they can reverse it. This is actually a really great story that not only expands on the first movie but broadens this universe even further with the inclusion of a long forgotten tribe, Earth giants and more. 

 Visually Frozen II is absolutely spectacular. It's colorful, vibrant and engaging. All the voice cast from the first movie return and again are incredible. Josh Gad's magic infused snowman Olaf steals the show here including various one liners, sensitive moments and a lot of body swapping. He isn't just here for fun though as sometimes he offers a lot of depth and helps move the plot along fast. Elsa and Anna are all singing all dancing and it's truly a joy to watch. Frozen felt like a giant love letter to sisterly love and it does return here also but there's also another tone lying deep beneath the surface. Love conquers all whatever form it may be. 
Frozen II is a movie aimed at a younger audience sure but really it's for everyone. It has so much heart, is hilarious at times and showcases love and the bonding between people in a terrific way. It's breathtaking visually and is so beautiful to just sit and get lost in. In summary Frozen II is not only just as good as it's older sibling it's on par if not better and is the finest animated movie of 2019. This is one you just must go and see.

Fighting with my Family review

Image
The Knight Family are a unique bunch to say the least. Not only do all the children wrestle but so do the mother and father. And out of that we got Paige. Florence Pugh stars as Saraya Knight a young girl from Norwich England. Her brother Zak Knight played by Jack Lowden has one dream. Of making it to the WWE and he will do anything to make it all possible. At it's core Fighting With My Family is exactly what the title says. A family who fight as we're shown the entire Knight family wrestling in small venues in Norwich. Ricky Knight who is the father wants so much for his kids to succeed and after sending tapes to WWE for them to review and possibly accept both Saraya and Zak for a tryout the family gets it's wish as WWE visits the UK for it's European tour. This is when we meet Vince Vaughn's character who is the guy in charge of recruiting talent and pushing them to see how far they can go and how much they have in them to make it to the top.

With that being said let's get into it Gotham finally returns for it's fifth and sadly last season and with a run of only 12 episodes there is a lot to get through and eventually wrap up.

Superman & Lois 3x13 : What Kills You Only Makes You Stronger review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. Season 3 of Superman and Lois has come to and end in the most devastatingly epic way. The finale opens up with Sam Lane telling Lois and Clark that Lex Luthor is nowhere to be found. Clark adds more to this by saying he can't hear him either but Lois is not convinced after all Lex did literally threaten her at the end of last weeks episode. A meteor shower is planned for the evening right at the center of Smallville town so you just know something is going to go down then and as expected something major does go down but more on that a bit later. As the boys leave the house Lois tells Clark that she is ready to be intimate again and the two fly off to a private secluded area where they can be together for the first time since Lois had her breasts removed due to her cancer. It's a tender moment and one that does feel very important fo...
