Tangled love

If you don't have young kids in your life right now, you may not have been exposed to too many animated movies recently.  This may be a blessing or a missed opportunity depending on your point of view!  But I am going to try and tempt you to rent one film, and relax into animated contentment.
A firm favourite in our house is "Tangled" and is the 2010 Disney-fied story of Repunzel.  It features the usual doe-eyed young lady, a charming, smooth-talking and chisel-jawed hero and a fabulous evil step-mother.  

The script features some real laugh-out-loud characters and humour and, specifically, doesn't take itself too seriously.  Oh - and of course, someone bursts into song every fifteen minutes.
Try this one too - just fabulously over the top, fantastic lyrics and a stunning voice (sung by Donna Murphy).  Repunzel has taken it into her head that she wants to leave the tower and explore the world.  "Mama" ain't too keen.

C'mon - you can't tell me that doesn't look fun!

  1. It's on my "to see" list. I think they're making a sequel too. Another good one to see is "Brave" if you haven't gone yet.

  2. My hairdresser's little granddaughter went to see this a while back and then went home and cut her own hair! UGH!
