Tangled Review:
Weaving a golden tale of laughter and excitement, Disney takes the classic story of "Rapunzel" to new heights. The film follows the life of Rapunzel: a socially-deprived, kidnapped princess whom I jokingly refer to as "the ultimate home-schooler. In pursuit of her dream to leave her confining tower and see the floating lanterns, she teams up with the unlikeliest of friends: a wanted thief, a band of ruffians, and a canine-like horse. With unexpected plot twists and exquisite embellishments, "Tangled" makes the original fairytale come to life. Being from the age of Beauty and the beast and the Lion King, I would be inclined to say that I didn't miss the old style of animation that is considered classic Disney. With that being said, Disney has proven once again that you can teach old dog new tricks. Tangled, presented in CGI animation was visually stunning. . The colors were vivid and clear. The cast was delightful and the songs were beautiful, though it lacked the sit-on-the-edge-of-your-seat toe-tapping number to throw the scores over the edge. Tangled, while sporting the romance featured in all Disney classics, did not focus solely on the love between Rapunzel and Flynn, but also the love of family and the strength of hope. The supporting cast was laugh-out-loud funny and the villain was convincingly 'good' for the better part of the movie. In true Disney style, it captivated and delighted the audience from the opening scene to the happily ever after. Definitely a must see for the entire family.
