The No. 1 Animated Feature Film of All Time
Bonus features include a sing-along version of the film plus exclusive content,
including outtakes, deleted scenes and songs, and much more!
The wait is finally over!!!! You can now pick up Disney Frozen II and add it to you family's growing collection of Frozen movies and shorts. :-) I know two girls in my house who were excited when they received an advance copy of the movie the other day in the mail. :-) They were quick to ask for an impromptu play date with a few friends, so that they could screen the movie with them. Even though my girls saw the movie three times (Yes, 3 times in 2 weeks) in theaters, they couldn't wait for the movie to finally release to Blu-ray and DVD, so that they could watch over and over again. They also were eager to share this movie with their friends, as they couldn't believe a few of them hadn't seen Frozen II when it was in theaters. This was one of those movies everyone -- adults and kids alike, were waiting for its release and to see it. While it was a long time coming for the release, it was well worth it! Don't worry, I will not give away any spoilers for those who still haven't seen the movie. Instead, I wanted to share about the movies release to Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K Ultra, along with all the great bonus content that is included with this new release, that you really have to check out.
Like I said, we say this movie three times in theaters, and even the third go round, the girls weren't bored. They loved all the new music, even though I didn't think it was as catchy as some of the previous songs we all know and love. But, I do have to say, they were fun to listen to, and really did add a depth and made you feel emotional during some of the edge of your seat scenes. I was surprised that this movie has so many twists and turns with the plot. Usually with Disney movies you know it will be have a happily ever after. But, with the new Frozen II, you didn't know at times if this would happen. One moment you think it is the end for one or more of the main characters, and then twenty minutes later, you have hope again for a happily ever after.
Frozen II will definitely pull at your heartstrings, especially the part where Anna in a cave -- don't worry, no spoilers here. So, be sure you have your tissues handy, as you will be crying if you cry easily watching a movie. But, when the movie is over and the credits start to roll, you will be smiling and happy that a second Frozen movie was made, and happy with how the story played out. Be sure to watch the credits until the end, as Olaf appears for a fun bonus scene that will have kids smiling and laughing. And, like I mentioned above, this new Frozen II release has a lot of bonus content that you must check out, including a sing along, outtakes, deleted scenes, music videos and more...over an hr. of bonus content!
I could go on and on about just how great Frozen II was, but I know most everyone has been waiting, like my family to add this movie to their growing Frozen collection, and don't need a reason to see it. Either you have seen in the theaters when it was originally released, or you have been eagerly awaiting to own it on Blu-ray, DVD, Digital or 4K Ultra. Just know you are in for a treat when you sit down and watch Frozen II with your family for an upcoming family movie night. We can't wait to watch this movie again this Friday or family movie night, and plan to watch the sing along version, so we can all sing along to the fun new songs.
Below is more information, along with official trailer for the movie, as well as more information about the great bonus content included with the new home video release.
