Tangled


Realising that there’s a German fairy tale they haven’t taken advantage of, Disney retell the story of Rapunzel. This probably would have been a movie not to give two shits about if it weren’t for John Lasseter’s sweet, sweet seal of approval. For a non-Pixar 3D Disney film, Tangled is both hilarious and heartfelt; a valiant effort at reclaiming Walt’s masterful storytelling ability. Unfortunately, it is bogged down by some inappropriately “modernised” dialog and intruding musical numbers. It’s disappointing, for it gets so close to claiming that same legendary Disney status. Still, it’s a fantastic movie with a dumb name.
