I enjoyed this movie very much. The characters are compelling, especially the troll and the weasel, and it holds true to Hans Christian Andersen's original story. I think that it is underrated. I suspect that because Disney had begun working on Frozen (which is also a very good movie), it may have been swept under the rug. There were couple of parts I could have lived without, such as the silly king and his family. I felt like they threw that in there just to overemphasize the importance of family and Gerda's goodness.
But the overall story was well told. I especially enjoyed the final fight scenes and learning about the snow queen's background. If you like animated movies and enjoy a good fairy tale, then this one is worth taking a look at. It's on Netflix if you have a subscription.
