I hope I like it better than you, Sotiris, since I was looking forward to Urie's rendition. Hard to imagine he could be worse than Demi Lovato at any rate.
While I'm not fond of Demi Lovato's voice, I did like the pop-rock arrangement they did on the song as well as the new bridge they wrote. I was pleasantly surprised when the bridge was later incorporated into the Broadway adaptation.

They sped up the tempo so that's why it feels like the singer is rushing through the song.

I thought it would be more different too. There's nothing really new to this arrangement aside from some bells and whistles here and there.

Thanks so much for posting! Like with the Elsa strut joke, I didn't like the Mickey Mouse sight gag either. I don't like meta jokes that are a wink at the audience and don't make sense in-universe. It doesn't qualify as an Easter egg either since it's so obvious and in your face.
I'm bit disappointed with "All Is Found". I was expecting a nicer, more memorable tune. It was a tad bland as far as lullabies go. I'm going to wait for the full version though before forming a final judgement.
The 'Into the Unknown" sequence went exactly as I expected based on the footage from the trailers. It wasn't as visually imaginative as the "Let It Go" sequence but it was still nice.

It's true they could have done more with the visuals. Here the song was more powerful than the footage whereas with "Let It Go", the song and visuals were of equal intensity.
