kids' movie with a good story and animation

Rating: Null/10 (29 August 2011)

Even though I'm not a kid, I thought this movie was good. Much better than what I've seen lately. It had good animation and a worthwhile story that's a little different than the usual Rapunzel tale. Here an old woman finds a flower than makes her eternally young. The king's men find the flower and use it to save the sick queen whom is having a daughter. The daughter is born with golden hair that has magical powers. The old woman steal's the girl and keeps her hidden in a tower, where Rapunzel grows very long hair and the woman uses it to stay young.
On her 18th birthday, Rapunzel wants to leave the tower to see the sky filled with lights. A thief, Flynn, finds the tower and sneaks in. In some very cute scenes with a frying pan, Rapunzel gets Flynn to take her to see the lights in person. Once the old woman finds her gone, she starts to track the 2. So, Rapunzel finds all that she's been missing in the world and well you guessed it, learns her mother was keeping her hid for her own selfish reasons.
Along the way, there are cute scenes and a couple of good songs. But most important, it's just a good story that makes sense.
FINAL VERDICT: A cute animated movie. Check it out.
