Tangled




Tangled is a radical new version of the story of Rapunzel. A drop of the sun came to the earth and became a magic flower it was taken by a greedy woman and used to restore her youth. The queen was ill and was with child so the people of the kingdom took the flower and used it to cure the queen as a result the baby was born with golden hair with the same magic powers as the flower.
The witch kidnaps the child and uses her magic hair to maintain her youth.
a bandit arrives at the hidden tower where the princess lives and takes her out on an adventure.
that's the basic story.
A musical based on the same lines as last years princess and the frog which also involved a modernisation of story. in this case standard 3d animation is used rather than the outdated 2d animation used in princess and the frog.
Highlights would be the royal guard horse and the tavern filled with scary looking kind hearted men looking to fulfill their dream as well as the excellent music.
A movie made to entertain all ages filled with betrayal revenge adventure love & friendship.
The concluding part was a bit cheesy and abrupt but all in all good.
I give it 3.5/5
