Progress:
So the first movie I will be discussing is one of the most popular films of today:
Frozen.
The movie is about two sisters living in a kingdom of Arendale.
Elsa has special powers and lived in solitude, because she had no control over them.
Elsa was able to keep her powers a secret from her sister, Anna, but she lost control of them at her coronation.
She got so afraid that she ran off and accidentally turned Arendale into an 'eternal' winter.
Anna decided to run after and find Elsa, so she can break the icy spell.
Along, the way Anna meets a happy snowman, Olaf, a iceman, Kristoff, and his fellow companion, a reindeer named Sven.
When Anna finally finds Elsa, she tries to persuade Elsa to come home.
Elsa is still very scared of her own powers, since it did almost killed her sister when they were younger.

When Anna finally finds Elsa, she tries to persuade Elsa to come home.
Elsa is still very scared of her own powers, since it did almost killed her sister when they were younger.
Elsa loses control of her powers again and unknowingly strikes Anna in the heart.
To cure a frozen heart, one must commit an "act of true love".
At first, the characters thought that Anna needed a 'true love's kiss' from Prince Hans, the man that Anna wanted to marry.
Hans actually betrayed her and proceeded to go and kill Elsa.
Nevertheless, Anna, seeing that Hans was about to strike his sword on Elsa, throws herself between the two just as she freezes solid, blocking Hans' attack.
As Elsa grieves for her sister, Anna begins to thaw, since Anna's decision to save her sister was an "act of true love".
Realizing that love is the key to controlling her powers, Elsa reforms by thawing the kingdom.
The two sisters reconcile and they lived
"Happily Ever After".
Reflection:
Frozen is probably the most overrated and over-hyped movie today.
Don't get me wrong here.
I love Frozen and Anna and Elsa and Kristoff and Olaf and Sven.
(P.S. I don't like Hans.)
It was a fun movie.
The songs were over-promoted, but they were catchy.
It has a really popular message of "girl power" or "family first".
(Even though those themes were used in other movies before. *cough cough* Mulan! *cough cough*)
Feelings aside, I here to discuss the overall concepts of Frozen.
First of all is family.
The act of true love doesn't always have to come from the "true love's kiss."
Anna's and Elsa's love for each other proved to be very strong, even though Elsa locked herself away for many years.
They would never intend harm on one another.
It's actually amazing how the characters of Elsa and Anna developed throughout the movie.
For example,
Anna's ice form was so cold,
that it started to freeze Hans' sword, when he was attempting to kill Elsa.
If anyone touched Anna, her frozen form might have hurt them.
It all made sense because Elsa could touch her,
since with Elsa's powers, the cold or ice wouldn't bother her anyway.
(You see what I did there? Hahahaha. Yeah, I'm lame.)
Elsa went from being the only person who couldn't touch Anna
to the only person who could.
Frozen is the kind of movie that makes you want to go Big Bear and make snow angels and build snow-mans.
Which reminds me...
Why is Olaf always so happy?
