La princesse des glaces 3

Being the third part of Snow Queen franchise The Snow Queen 3: Fire and Ice has gained and improved its own graphic style and has gotten better in visual effects. I really enjoyed the fantastic scenery the story developed in, all those mountain gorges, snow avalanches, volcano eruptions, a pirate ship skiing in magnificent landscapes and a train made of ice.

The thing I also liked is that although being a sequel The Snow Queen 3 is independent from other parts and if you haven't watched the previous ones it is not a problem at all. You can start watching this part and enjoy it not knowing the previous stories.

As for the message of the animation the story tells about vital things: the importance of being a family, the choice everyone makes between good and evil and that everyone should treasure their relations. These themes are important for our children and it is good that animated feature films touch these things in their plots. The final fight scene is very impressive and the evil has been defeated.

As for the weak points the thing I lacked is some well memorized and catchy song although the music of The Snow Queen 3 is impressive.

Today, my daughters and I watched the third part of the Snow Queen trilogy. The youngest daughter adores this story) The cartoon is about 1.5 hours, but the view flew completely unnoticed. I liked the work of Russian authors. Kai and Gerda grew up, make money for their living stories, miss their parents and will of chance again become involved in the adventure. Very nice characters, especially Gerda. Really, very sweet - I suddenly wanted to put my daughter's hair like hers! Trendy, slender, charming, and when she finds herself in the outfit of a "half-snow queen" is awesome. How adorable is her love, how familiar these adolescent loving looks are! solid fascination! Animation is very beautiful, good special effects (but a cartoon is not completely overloaded by it), a clear plot design, adventures of heroes, interesting turns... There were several scenes where little spectators had to worry. But the magnificent ending has very pleased me and my daughters! Summary: the movie is absolutely to be seen especialy by young girls!

Traditions mean a lot to Russia. There aren't many of them, but each is very warm and cozy. That's how, back in 2012, the first Snow Queen animated movie appeared – it won children's hearts at once as well as made adults believe in magic and hope to see its sequel… Time passes… So, at the end of 2016, the third instalment of the franchise was released already.

Some people anticipated it, others were a bit worried – as we're always a little afraid to get disappointed in something we like. Fortunately, that didn't happen but let's start from the beginning…

There's no point in re-telling the plot, as a lot of people have already seen the movie or read other reviews. I'd rather share my impressions and emotions with you instead.

What I liked most of all was the fact that the characters had grown up, they encountered problems that I think everyone does encounter, and faced a really hard choice between good and evil. I think I needed more drama and the characters' inner feelings, but the image itself compensated really well. The audience watches its bright colors and fantastic nature sceneries during the whole movie length, so I caught myself thinking that I wouldn't have guessed that The Snow Queen 3 is a Russian movie if I hadn't known it in the beginning.

I'd like to mention the music separately. The soundtrack is very positive and stays in your head for a long time after you've left the movie theater.

In short, I'd recommend the movie to those who wants to keep their New Year and Christmas mood going for longer, to have a good time, and just to get absorbed in the world of magic fairy tales.

The Snow Queen sequel even exceeded all my expectations! I think that the third movie is much better than the second one. After the spin- off about Orm, it was great to see Gerda as a protagonist again – it was especially nice to see how much her looks have changed. She has noticeably grown up and is truly about to rank among Disney's gorgeous princesses. As for the screenplay, Robert Lence was involved in the process of its creation – he is a real master of the American animation and he has worked on dozens of large projects. The results of this collaboration are easy to see: the movie has acquired a good pace and the alternation of lyrical pauses and breath-taking action is done really well – you will surely neither get bored with nor get tired of the movie! The authors tried to tell us how valuable one's family is and that the most important thing in life is having someone to be there for you when your life gets hard. The movie also says that you should never just throw people out of your life and it is never too late to say sorry. The animated movie has plenty of complicated scenes with various visual and sound effects. You can see avalanches going down the mountains, explosions, volcano eruptions, lava leaking through all the cracks, multicolored magic bursts, an armored train of the purest ice, a ship put on skis. Quite a lot of views worth seeing! I really enjoyed the movie and I wish you to enjoy it too!

The movie was excellent and the theme as nice. Its good to see other studios outside Pixar and Disney.

I genuinely liked the art style of the movie.

The movie had interesting mixture of comedy and action and a fiery ending with a big battle. I wish the movie had more Slavic characters.
