Review: ‘Frozen II’ is an exciting, charming successor to Disney’s original

Disney’s animated “Frozen II” is wetter and wilder than its predecessor, showing that sometimes the elements can come together to make magic twice.

Co-directors Jennifer Lee (who again writes the screenplay) and Chris Buck gather most of the voice cast from the first “Frozen” — including Idina Menzel as the snow-powered Elsa and Kristen Bell as her non-magical sister Anna, along with Josh Gad as the snowman Olaf and Jonathan Groff as hunky reindeer herder Kristoff. More importantly, they bring back husband-and-wife songwriters Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, who made “Let It Go” the Oscar-winning earworm that even Elsa is a bit embarrassed about now.
