Review #48 | Tangled

Yeah...It is so satisfactory when you watch a fine animated film. Tangled is one those films.

Tangled, 2010

When the kingdom's most wanted-and most charming-bandit Flynn Rider hides out in a mysterious tower, he's taken hostage by Rapunzel, a beautiful and feisty tower-bound teen with 70 feet of magical, golden hair. Flynn's curious captor, who's looking for her ticket out of the tower where she's been locked away for years, strikes a deal with the handsome thief and the unlikely duo sets off on an action-packed escapade, complete with a super-cop horse, an over-protective chameleon and a gruff gang of pub thugs.

This is how you make an animated film. Or at least this is how the Disney makes an animated film when they put their heart and soul into their work. I cannot say that it is has everything it needs to be perfect but it is truly delightful.

Tangled has some of the best animated scenes. ‘Kingdom Dance’ scene is very authentic and beautiful. The tear healing scene is one of the best climaxes Disney has ever done. It made me cry.

It is a best animated musical I have ever seen. What makes Tangled shine beautifully is the free character of Rapunzel. She finds the true enemy and she is not afraid to fight for freedom. When she finds out that Flynn dying, she decides even to give up her freedom to save him.

My only complaint would be the too human like animal characters, and in comparison too lighthearted human characters.

Good Quote: (Rapunzel) I will keep fighting you, but if you just let me heal him…
