Frozen (2013)

Disney's animated story with a lot of familiar ingredients:  the sister rivalry, the dead parents, the banishment, the hero's journey back and true love's kiss.  Add in some snow, and a huge helping of Wicked and you've now Frozen.

It does owe a lot to the Broadway musical that it will be destined to become, and even get the Broadway star Idina Menzel as Elsa and Kristin Bell as Anna (playing the other Kristin Chenowith part).  Also starring Josh Gad's voice as Olaf, the wise cracking snowman sidekick.

A predictable if pleasant Cinderella/Sleeping Beauty/ Beauty and the Beast story.
