Once again Disney has been inspired by one of our all time favorite childhood stories, this time it is not Cinderella or the beautiful Snow White, this time around they have chosen to re-create Rapunzel. But, as Disney has realized, Rapunzel isn't a catchy title for a blockbuster film, so they've spiced it up with the name Tangled, inspired by Rapunzel's luscious locks I'm guessing.
I take my hat off to Disney. The way humor is used in the film, Tangled, is very clever. Throughout the film we laugh at the mixture of childish jokes, and the odd adult humor thrown in here and there for the older viewers. However, even though Disney have added a bit of a spark into this traditionally romantic tale, it still involves the romantic songs that will melt your hearts and make you smile, thankfully none of the songs are sang by woodland creatures, and for this we thank you Disney.
The story revolves around a teenage girl, who has fantastically long blonde hair that holds powers of its own, her name is Rapunzel (Mandy Moore). She is frustrated about having to live up in her tower, and longs for her freedom to see the "floating lights". Locked up in the tower by her false loving mother, the wickedly evil witch, young Rapunzel is waiting for her moment to escape. Then comes along Flynn Rider (Zachary Levi), a thief who Rapunzel dazzles with her magical hair and beauty. Could this be the start of something beautiful?
All in all, Tangled is an enjoyable film that will bring the family together for a good night in and a well earned giggle. The only downer with the film is the effects. They're a bit to dim for personal liking, and aren't as witty as Disney usually create. But don't let that stop you from viewing Disney's latest creation. What are you waiting for? Let your hair down, and watch it today!
