While, as in the previous film, Idina Menzel’s performance on the film’s central songs steal the spotlight, it might be Kristen Bell’s heart-wrenching “The Next Right Thing” that sticks with you long after the film is over. The story and music are both more complex than the original story, but in many ways, that makes for a richer, more mature film (that can still be enjoyed by the preschool set). There, they discover the truth behind a conflict between Arendelle and the indigenous Northuldra people-and the truth isn’t pretty. When she accidentally awakens elemental magical spirits, causing the whole kingdom to evacuate from their capital city, she, Anna, Kristoff, Olaf, and Sven travel to the Enchanted Forest. The second movie follows Elsa, who, as her powers are growing, finds that she still feels she doesn’t fit into her role in Arendelle. The pair were featured in two short features, Frozen Fever(2015) and Olaf’s Frozen Adventure (2017)-before making their second big screen appearance in November 2019.Įnjoy a FREE TRIAL of Disney+, courtesy of Den of Geek! The sisters quickly captured the imaginations of children everywhere-you couldn’t pass a swing set at a park in 2014 without hearing some child singing “Let It Go”-and Elsa and Anna became household names. Unless you’ve been living under a rock since 2013, you know the story of Frozen: one sister, cursed and afraid, causes an eternal winter the other, plucky but desperate for love, sets off to find her and solve the problem. In a cool surprise from the media giant, they released the film to Disney+ subscribers months ahead of schedule, due to the coronavirus quarantine. ![]() If you’re like my family, you were patiently waiting until this summer for Frozen 2 to come to Disney’s streaming service. While some critics felt the film was too formulaic, and didn’t do enough to reach out to the non-Pokemon-fan audience, kids (and parents) familiar with the franchise will enjoy all the Pokemon cameos they can spot throughout the film. The disappearance of Tim’s father and the strange gas must be related, and their journey leads them to confront an advanced form of Mewtwo before they can save the day. As they hunt for clues, they discover vials of purple gas that cause Pokemon to go into a battle frenzy. While other people only hear Pikachu say “pika,” Tim realizes he can communicate with the Pokemon, and the two work together to unravel the mystery. When Tim’s father, a private investigator, goes missing, Tim finds himself paired up with his father’s Pokemon companion. ![]() Set in a world where trainers really do collect Pokemon, and no one seems to be able to understand them, the film features Ryan Reynolds as the voice and facial capture actor for Pikachu alongside Justice Smith as Tim Goodman, a failed Pokemon trainer. While my kids and I can still play a little bit of Pokemon GO (as long as we keep our social distancing), hanging out with Pikachu on screen is another option, thanks to the recent film. Since we can’t go out to see a movie right now, here are some recent kids and family films you can catch right in your living rooms. The COVID-19 pandemic has many of us at home with our kids, and while we’ve got distance learning to handle from many of our school systems, giving us a taste of what homeschooling is like, there’s also some great opportunity for watching films together as a family. ![]()
