It's a typical Disney film and you can expect all that you can expect out of a Disney film.
Tangled is the 21st century Rapunzel and if you've not read the outline of the story, then it's a highly enjoyable film. I watched this on my 2nd half of my 5 hour flight from Singapore to Shanghai last night, after spending an enjoyable first half on Love and Other Drugs. Despite the harsh reality of the first half of my journey, the 2nd half was a lot lighter and still pretty much enjoyable.
I can't help but being enthralled by how well of the animation of the eyes of Rapunzel is. It's like you look into her soul and can actually feel how trapped she had been her whole life! They come alive for me, not her hair! Granted, she has magical hair and one quite unexpected in terms of plot.
A well crafted animation with enough excitement and music, even for the adults.

It has been quite a long time since I’ve seen a Disney movie in theaters. As far as I remember the last great Disney movie I’ve seen in cinemas was “The Lion King” and the rest of Disney’s outings such as “Mulan” and “Pocahantas” I’ve only seen on video. Well, seeing as I was convinced by a friend to see a more light-hearted fare this week, I agreed to see “TANGLED”. It is the 50th animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated … more

Much like a Disney bluebird, another $10 flutters away from my wallet, serial numbers flapping while Alexander Hilton stares out at me coldly. Tangled is a triple-threat to my attention span, simultaneously making me sleepy, itchy and a little hungry during the middle. The tap-tap-tap sound you can hear is another nail being driven in the coffin containing my terminally ill love for the movie industry. On the positive side, nobody can accuse Mandy Moore of mumbling. Cranking … more

Tangled is the new animated film from Disney and I loved it. This movie is a reboot of the Rapunzel. She is a girl with long magical golden hair. She is voiced by Mandy Moore. She is a princess who gets kidnapped as a baby by an evil stepmother. She lives and is trapped in a tower for eighteen years. She longs to explore the world. She gets her chance with the help of a thief named Flynn Rider. He is voiced by Zachary Levi. I love the … more

After a stint of about two decades, wherein fans of the old Disney movies nostalgically lamented the gradual decline of Disney, the studio which once brought us such classics as Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast appears to have kicked its mojo back into gear with its latest feature, Tangled. The computer-animated film, based on the well-known German fairy tale “Rapunzel,” follows Disney’s tried and true formula -- and lo’ and behold, the recipe still produces magic. Tangled … more

In the late 80's Disney put out The Little Mermaid. The film more or less established a formula for Disney that they pretty much kept running with through the 90's. You take a simple existing story or fairy tale or myth... you make it kid friendly (none of these Disney classics really followed the original tales that particularly well) and then you add in a few songs and a love story of some sort. This made Disney films like The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast … more

*** out of **** Disney has always had a reputation, which is the same for me or anyone else really, that has me wondering what they'll cook up next. They always have something on the stove; something good, and sometimes even great. Now, you can't have a good animated film just by having good animation; you need something more. "Tangled" is an animated feature that adds a clever little ingredient, giving it a nice taste, thus bringing it from the potential "animated, goofy … more

I was not terribly enthusiastic about seeing TANGLED, and in fact, I didn't see it for several weeks. But a slow Sunday afternoon came around, and having seen pretty much everything else…I was coaxed into attending. And now the film is on my Top 10 for 2010 list! This is a Disney picture, with the graphic sensibilities of a Pixar film. I know the two companies are allied, but what I mean is this: Pixar has had the corner on smart, modern looking, genre-twisting films. Nary … more

Tangled is another attempt to get back to the classic disney formula of stunning visuals accompanied by sweeping snarky coming-of-age romances and great musical numbers, and may I say they definitely succeeded. This is far from Disney's best movie, but definitely not their worst. Plus, for me its currently tied with Meet the Robinsons for best non-pixar disney CGI movie. This is also quite a different type of princess movie, it being sort of an adventure movie as well. Despite princessdom being … more

Long-time readers (sufferers as the case may be) of my critical efforts may have noticed a certain pattern whereby I locate, for purpose of review, animated feature films so obscure that even the individuals responsible for their creation have long forgotten about them. Usually (but not always), it isn’t very difficult for me to find fault in these works but alas, to insure the accuracy of my whole scale of judgment, I proudly visit the latest, greatest, high-budgeted, … more

Tangled hit screens in 2010 with much hullabaloo. It is the fiftieth animated film produced by Disney Studios. It is also at the center of a title controversy spinning around in Mickey land. The film was originally entitled Rapunzel Unbraided and then just plain old Rapunzel, but that was changed once more to Tangled for reasons that differ depending on whom you ask. Personally, I believe the change was made in an effort to expand the film's demographic outreach, … more
