Sloppliness is not complexity
I've seen Frozen far too many times than I'd like to admit, being the father of three girls. I've seen it enough to realize that the music drove this movie and not much else. It quite honestly may be the worst one released in the post-Walt era.
I don't mind dynamic storylines and characters for my children. The story does not have to be as simple as, say, Sleeping Beauty. In fact, Mary Poppins gave us just that. But do not conflate the sloppiness with which this movie was assembled with complexity.
