An Instant Classic

Rating: 9/10 (8 December 2010)

**This review contains spoilers**
This is the first Disney princess movie in 3D, and anyone who thought that Disney couldn't bring magic to a movie without Pixar being involved was proved wrong with this "Tangled".
The movie, as cliché as it sounds, is an instant classic. Not only will your children love it, but adults will as well.
Rapunzel, voiced by Mandy Moore, is a beautiful, held back lost princess waiting for her chance to break out into the world after being locked in a tower for eighteen years by a witch filled with greed.
Flynn Rider, voiced by Zachary Levi, is a reluctant savior and thief who only really seems to care about himself, at least until he meets Rapunzel.
The songs, composed by Disney alum Alan Menken, are catchy and serve the story well, especially the song titled "Mother Knows Best" and its reprise.
The movie isn't bogged down by random characters flowing in and out of the story just for laughs, but they are characters who end up serving the story's climax and that is refreshing. There have been several 3D animations in the recent past that have tried to introduce too many characters and end up overwhelming the audience without furthering the plot or individual characterizations.
The horse and the chameleon, Pascal and Max, are very funny and have much of the comedic relief although they have no speaking parts. Also, the romantic scene between the two leads amongst the lanterns floating into the air was perfection. Very, very well done.
Overall, I very much enjoyed this movie and would highly suggest you go see it! An instant classic!
