I saw Tangled today. And it was amazing. Actually. It was a cute spin-off from Rapunzel and the end was great! My friend (with whom I saw the the movie) also pointed out that they did not kiss on the boat under the lanterns, which, correct me if I'm wrong, is a first for Disney Princess movies. Most of the movies tend to have the romantic kissing scene with a cute song in the background and some kind of spectacular light show going on around them. I liked the break from tradition. Also, the ending was good. I'm not one for "happily-ever-after" but I was on the edge of my seat after Eugene/Flynn climbed into the tower the last time to rescue Rapunzel from her "mother". My mouth was hanging open the entire time and I was so absorbed in the scene that I didn't even pause to push the 3D glasses that were creeping off my nose. It probably would have made for a better ending, well a deeper ending, if he had died. But of course it's Disney and if he did the majority of the people in the theater (AKA those between the ages of 2 and 10) would probably cry and be confused... so that wouldn't work. But it still made for a better fairy-tale. Another observation I made, was that in EVERY disney movie there is always one person who gets drunk. Interesting, and more than a little funny since they are supposed to be children's films. Well I give it 5 stars (I may be a bit biased since I have short brown hair -if you see the movie you'll understand- and that's the first princess I've seen that shares the look) and I'm making sure to buy it and put it on all my portable-movie-playing-devices when it comes out.
