Its far better than Frozen (in my opinion anyway) with its themes and what it wants to say. The Pop songs are a bit jarring but they aren't bad. The one thing the trailers don't tell you about this movie is that its a musical. So the singing is going to catch you of guard. But still, not bad songs. I wouldn't trust any reviews of the movie because most of them seem to want to talk about how "bad" the music is and ignore everything else.
If you're a fan of animated films, give this one a look see. It is rather impressive.
Pop songs in a musical? That makes me want to see it more. It just sounds like a Jukebox Musical, but those never bothered me. I might catch it when it comes out on video/Netflix.
As for reviews, I don't trust reviews for movies any more. A movie could have this alsome story with kick ass fight scenes and characters that are quoted for the next 10 years and the reviews will focus on the fact that there are subtext that are not there or the fact that the one actor in the main cast can't act, which will give it a "Not See" or 2/5. The same goes for games.
