Rapunzel!! I'm quite glad I decided to watch this film. While there are some spoilers here, I am not gonna go into much details, since well. I'm typing this after midnight, I'm tired from a whole day of fun. But I still feel like writing a review anyways lest I forget it, so please excuse me.
At first, looking at the characters(well, mostly at Rider and Rapunzel) I instantly thought of Aladdin and Jasmine. From facial expressions, personality to character design. Yup. Sure does. But you don't really mind it after you get into the show, it's not much of a problem.
It's comedic, that's good. It doesn't have any forced humor and it was quite realistic within it's bounds. I was sorta worried after realizing that it's not a Pixar produced film sitting in the cinema. But my worries were put to rest after the film started.
Soundtrack! I didn't really paid much attention to the music, but the songs sang, hmm. They were okay, very Disney-like as usual, but I think it doesn't stand up to the older films such as Mulan. However, the musical parts were well executed into the story and flow. For the first time, I didn't felt like saying "Who the hell would suddenly break into a song in a situation like that?!" while pointing straight at the screen.
Maximus the white horse was very funny, I didn't expect them to give the horse any characteristics when I was watching it actually. The green chameleon is pretty cute and funny too.
The story is nice, the tears are a bit of a cliche, but oh well. It's a tale that existed for a long while already, and there was one version that had the magic tear in it so I don't mind this one.
One of the biggest highlights of this film is definitely the lantern scene, I won't go into this at all though, since it'll just lessen the impact for you. So yup, I highly recommend this film if you wanna enjoy a nice fairy tale with friends, families or a partner!
