Tangled: Before Ever After

This animated film tells the story of princess Rapunzel who is going to be crowned. Due to her mishap, her long blonde hair grows back.

It tells a story of a merry misadventure, which leads to Rapunzel growing and learning about herself. The characters are visually pleasing and the plot is engaging. It is fun to watch.

It could be the start of a lifetime of happiness for Rapunzel, but things aren't exactly going as she dreamed. As Eugene quickly adjusts to his new life of luxury at court, for Rapunzel, life as a princess in the Kingdom of Corona is proving to be more complicated than she anticipated. Overwhelmed by new responsibilities, Rapunzel and her friend and nurse Cassandra set off on a night of freedom in which Rapunzel's blonde hair grows back. Can she accept all that this represents?

That square graphic and less charismatic and charming than the original, focusing on the script, simple, continuous (with its antecedents), musical in measure, a message of female freedom (attempted) giving rise to a continuation... The after "Happily Ever After", just as not every woman was born to be a mother, not every heir was born to be a monarch...

It was unexpected for the 'Tnagled' fans. I'm one of them. Apart from the short film, they had forgotten about this potential animation franchise. It has been 7 years since the first film and now this television film suddenly made its way. It is an hour long film and a television series is to follow. That news is even more exciting, isn't it. I already saw a couple of episodes and it was equally brilliant. It is good for Disney channel after their top show 'Girl Meets World' concluded, this one is replaced it just like that.

This is not a 3D animation, but a product for television in this format is not bad. Because I've seen 3D format TV series and I feel the quality is yet to improve. In fact, the 2D animation was awesome. From the textures to the colours, film characters, backgrounds, it was impressive. Very happy that they have retained almost all the voice-over artists. The original tale means always about the long hair princess. They wanted to keep that way. So that's why this film before the series to commence which reveals an important detail.

I would say it is a breakthrough for the directors. From this success, I'm anticipating them to involve in a feature 3D animated film for Disney. Despite this triumph, I am hoping for a sequel to the 2010 film, particularly after the first season and before the second to commence to follow from that film. Anyway, this is short and sweet, a film not to be missed by animation fans, especially by Disney fans.

7/10

Rapunzel (Mandy Moore) and Eugene (Zachary Levi) are back. They are back within the castle walls although she yearns for the wider world. She's being welcomed as a princess by her overprotective father King Frederic (Clancy Brown). Eugene proposes to Rapunzel and suddenly, she feels trapped. She sneaks out of the castle with her lady-in-waiting Cassandra and return to the power of the miracle flower.

The animation has the look of a children's book. It serves to launch Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure. I thought right from the start that Rapunzel isn't Rapunzel without her hair. It's good to get it back for her and it has a nice twist. This is good Disney TV.

I saw some bad reviews on this earlier so figured i would weigh in

The only thing I did not like like about it was the formulaic singing that Disney seems to do with all their stuff, I believe Disney has some kind of computer program, and anyone who sings, especially women, must adhere to this voice to within 95%, so we always get nice sounding voices with very little range. But no highs or lows, the same sounding voice over and over.

I did not detect any sort of lesbian thing here, the relationship between daughter and Father is strongly emphasized

The animation is weak and will probably be dinged as low budget, but its serviceable

It comes across as a movie targeting girls between K-10 grades, but my wife and i enjoyed it, which is saying something since both of us often avoid Disney, their stuff is pretty redundant

Hopefully the upcoming episodes will be as enjoyable
