Aw, I'll voice defense for the scene here. I kind of thought the whole choosing to sacrifice herself to save her sister instead of saving herself by receiving her true love's kiss made the scene doubly touching, and also worked as an explicit subversion of the old Disney romance trope that your true love romantic is most important, which was neat.
I mean, I'm pretty sure Kristoff's actual role in the movie was to be a main male character in a ploy to get boys to watch the movie too, but I also don't think his character was completely useless.

Agreed, I thought the fact that she had the chance to save herself and chose to gave it up to save Elsa instead gave it that much more impact. I mean, she was already dying, if she hadn't had Kristoff and the opportunity to save herself the sacrifice wouldn't have meant nearly as much.

Right. While I was rolling my eyes at the bickering to hide true love trope - I do think that Kristoff was there so Anna could make the choice to save Elsa even though she could have saved herself with a kiss from Kristoff. That was the act of true love - making the choice to put Elsa's survival above her own. If she was going to die anyway - then dying for anyone is not really that much of a sacrifice. It is really only a sacrifice if she thinks she has a way to save to herself but gives that up to save someone else.
