I actually liked this one. Very traditional and yet different from all those Disney princess movies. 

Traditional because...

• It has the life or death situation type of climax like most of the Disney classics
• It has a princess OBVIOUSLY!
• It has can make you fall in love with the love story... but more importantly with the cute guy haha!
• It has original but traditional Disney-esque songs.
• It has fun-lovin' sidekicks

Different because...

• It's a 3D animated film
• The leading guy is not a prince or any aristocratic/prominent guy.. or even a social misfit... more like a thief... a very cute thief.. *melts*
• It showed blood, which makes it "darker" than the usual Disney films, but I'm not really sure if it's the 1st time they showed blood. (well, I'm not gonna tell who bled.)

Rapunzel reminded me of Ariel from The Little Mermaid 'coz she was a trapped character. The character who lives in her known environment but eager to find out whats "out there".

Flynn Rider... one thing I can say: I wish he was real.

I can notice that the makers of this film toned down the comedy a bit. I got used of the Pixar style where comedy or wackiness dominates the film. but in Tangled, only the 1st half has most of the fun scenes.  The pacing and the format of the story is quite similar to Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast. In the end, I see it as a fun love story.

Somehow, the story and the scenes were kinda... short. I feel like it's missing some piece or something. The only thing that I didn't like is that it didn't let the viewers explore more of the kingdom and the palace... I'm just saying I would really like to explore it, dunno if it's the same with other people.

P.S.
The horse is freakishly smart... and the chameleon is CUTE!!!

Score:
8.5/10
