Excerpt from the number #12 entry on the Best Disney Animated Films countdown at thenewsergberet.com (Link in Bio), "Tangled" (2010) "Tangled is a great risk Disney took and it paid off in more ways than one. With being the first CGI musical not just for the company, but in general in animation, Tangled delights and entertains by being a phenomenal story. The introduction lays out the story for the audience, even spoiling the ending in a way, but it does not make this a bad thing. It helps make the story more compelling for the audience to anticipate Rapunzel's reaction to her being the lost princess of the kingdom. The chemistry between Rapunzel and Flynn is adorable with Flynn trying his best to be dashing and heroic and Rapunzel going from curious about the world to filled with heartache and sorrow. Together, they make a sarcastic and hilarious duo. The humor is fast paced and frantic like Emperor's New Groove before it by going the Dreamworks and Looney Tunes route. The music is also great with Alan Menken taking a traditional and more pop oriented approach throughout the film, yet the films greatest strength is the animation. It is beyond gorgeous. It relishes in its bright world that brings the world of the classic fairy tale into a CGI format with ease and still retains the Disney style. In fact, the concept art for the film and sketches for its original 2D production is captured phenomenally well. This is proven in during the number "I See The Light" when they finally get to see the lanterns. It is beautiful from the music, the animation and the expressions throughout. I actually cried during this scene when it cut to the King of Corona looking down knwing he may never get his daughter back. It's that brilliant. Fortunately, this film is not what it title suggest being tangled, but rather, a straightforward classic of modern animation, even if the next entry perfects what this film built." #film #cinema #tangled #disney #animation #rapunzel #topofthecrop #bestof #sergberet
