Olaf presenta

Inspired by the section of "Frozen 2" when Olaf the snowman recounts the story of the first film, here the characters re-enacts five more Disney films. It's basically a DVD extra expounded into a little short series and, provided you accept it for what it is, it's fine.

With the occasional help of Sven or the frost giants, Olaf (Josh Gad) recounts the events of five Disney films for comedic effect. The films are "The Lion King", "Moana", "The Little Mermaid", "Tangled" and "Aladdin".

I'll not run too long with my review here, as the whole series is over in around 11 minutes. The animation work is good, on par with the other scenes from "Frozen 2". Your tolerance for this might depend on your thoughts about the character of Olaf. I get the he's a divisive one, but I think the scattershot approach works in his favour here, each joke is over immediately and we're onto the next one quickly, almost too quickly at times.

They're slightly less affectionate jabs than you might otherwise have anticipated, occasionally pointing out a logic problem with one of the films. I laughed a few times across the 11 minutes and probably that's all I could have really asked of it.

I had no expectations to this show because I thought it was the usual, simple animation comedy, but it was actually not bad. It makes fun of different characters from several classic Disney movies in exaggerated ways, which makes it quite funny. Recommending for everyone who has watched The Little Mermaid, Moana, The Lion King, Aladdin and Tangled. My personal favorite is The Little Mermaid.

Very similar to some of the 'oversimplified' videos on youtube. But well executed nontheless. But honestly I find some of the youtube version much more entertaining and amuzing.

6/10: good. But there excists better.

Okay, I just want to start off by saying that this is HILARIOUS! It makes me laugh so hard and Josh Gad is very talented. I really like it and everyone I've shown it to likes it as well.

That being said, there is a reason I gave it a 9 and not a perfect 10. While I think it's funny, it feels like Disney can't come up with any new material anymore, and when they do it isn't pretty. It makes me sad that the only way they can has success is by mooching off their previous films from when they knew how to write a movie.

Overall you should totally give this show a try, because if you don't like it, it's only 10 minutes less of your life. What do you have to lose?

These shorts were actually good and funny. I don't know if others felt it but to me it kinda felt like Olaf was mocking the classics of Disney. It was quite funny. Especially The Lion King, Moana and The Little Mermaid. Don't need to watch all episodes of this. Just watch the last episode the 6th one. It consists all the other episodes in one. Give it a try.
