    I've always loved the tale of Rapunzel. Even though Tangled isn't one of my favorite Disney movies, I still thought it was a fun adaptation.

    And the voice of Rapunzel was Mandy Moore! :)

    I liked this version all right, but am getting tired of the blatant messages of "girl doesn't need boy" to win. I wish there were more of a balance and a little more subtlety...

    I'm afraid I haven't seen 'Tangled'. Although you're never too old for Disney-esque movies, in my opinion, my youngest are boys and my daughter maintains you can't beat 'Prince of Egypt'. I did giggle all the way through 'Hotel Transylvania' a few days ago...

    I thought Zachary Levi was excellent in this.
    Then again I did love him in Chuck!

    I haven't seen Tangled (shocking).... Last night I was catching up on a few recorded things on the DVR. One of the things I watched was an episode of the show Once Upon A Time. It constantly pulls in various fairy tale characters. Last night featured... Rapunzel. Ah, look how great that worked out:)

    LOVED Tangled! Such a cute film.... lots of comedy too...

    As for the actress voice. I think it's the girl from Glee... Can't remember her name!

    I enjoyed Tangled, but was surprised (I don't know why) at how many songs there were. Sometimes I just like to watch a movie, not a musical.

    And guess what? In Frozen our kids spotted Rapunzel in one of the scenes. Very clever those Disney folk.

    I loved Tangled! It gave that fun twist that makes Disney movies so fun.

    I enjoyed the quirky twist of Disney's version. The highs and lows of her character were fun.

    I loved Tangled! Especially Flynn Rider. Not to mention Pascal was the cutest little sidekick ever. I'm really a seven year old at heart. ;)
