Snow Queen proves both visually cruddy and narratively muddled. Read full review

None of the characters,--whether human, fantastical, or anthropomorphically animal—prove remotely engaging. And the cheap animation, the sort of low-grade CGI endemic to endless direct-to-video efforts, proves visually unappealing. Read full review

There is one thing I like and one thing I dislike about this version of Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen."

The one I like is the animation keeping on pace with the original story in modern perspective as promised by Wizart Animation officials. The one I dislike is the EnglishThere is one thing I like and one thing I dislike about this version of Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen."

The one I like is the animation keeping on pace with the original story in modern perspective as promised by Wizart Animation officials.

The one I dislike is the English soundtrack. It sounded and looked like that it was improvised than putting up a good effort. That is not what I've expected from the audio.

I give this animated feature a "B+." However, I'll give it an "A" if they can do a better job with the English soundtrack, even though it received positive reviews in their home country, Russia.

But for the record, Wizart Animation of Russia has shown great qualities in the animation business, even though it may look kind of a rip-off to Disney, Pixar, DreamWorks, Blue Sky, Illumination, and many other animation studios in America. They have what it takes to produce animated features, and their latest feature, "The Snow Queen" is their runner up.… Expand

The Snow Queen is especially memorable because of its cute and cheerful characters. Some people think that only the major studios like Disney or Pixar can make a good cartoon.

Some people think that only the major studios like Disney or Pixar can make a good cartoon. But The Snow Queen is the proof that the indie studios can do it too. It has a thoughtful and fascinating plot and a lot of good messages for the children. Nice gags and, overall, very solid comedy.

Adults would like it, children would surely love it!

Well, overall, it’s a good movie. A must see!… Expand

Plenty of humor and some very likable characters make this very easy to watch for the whole family. Would recommend to anyone, parents or not. The film shows you don't need famous actors to have great performances. The animation is good and the action sequences are really enjoyable. Kai and Gerda are the glue that keeps the film together. Congratulations to everyone who created this lovely, heartwarming film.… Expand

Don't watch this. Avoid it at all costs. It's just a cheap rip-off of Frozen with an improvised english sound track and suffers goodmoviaphobia ( fear of good movies ). Avoid it. Just. Avoid. It.
