Entertaining, lovely movie. Idina Menzel has a rabid following, but I found her fairly miscast here. Her voice is rich, low and throaty. Wrong for a character defined by her anxiety and desperation.
Kristen Bell was essentially the life of the movie, and the supporting cast was fine. The music was much better than one would expect, based on the last few years of Disney musicals. Truly some lovely moments.
Society can wind women pretty tight with expectations and behavioral conditioning, and this is a rare story that addresses not only that, but how a rush of feelings can cause misjudgements and real humiliation. Nicely done.
