Wonderful, I do not understand the outcry.
30 November 2017 | by – See all my reviews

As someone who loved Frozen, I thought this was a lovely follow up to the film! It did not at all ruin Coco, and I believe it should have been the ABC special that it was always meant to be, but in no way was it terrible! I believe every single person that has reviewed this short honestly didn't like Frozen, or simple is mad that they had to watch it in the first place so they are going to complain about it. Olaf is charming as always, and the visuals were stunning. People are giving this short very little appreciation, which I think is wrong. This short should not be punished because of it's placement in front of Coco. It is a wonderful pre-Frozen 2 plot, with a purpose that resonates realistically with the characters set up in the original Frozen movie. If you loved Frozen you will love this short. If you didn't love, or even like Frozen you shouldn't be writing a review about this simply to complain and giving it a bad rating just because you can. Unless you are watching as a biased party you are giving people who liked/loved Frozen an unrealistic viewpoint on the quality of this short. It is most definitely worth a watch, and should be given more respect than it's currently getting.
