Ever since we saw the first preview of Walt Disney Picture’s Tangled, which comes to theaters November 24th, the kids and I have been eagerly awaiting it’s release. It caught our eye because of the eye-popping animation, the storyline, and most of all, the characters.

When the kingdom’s most wanted—and most charming—bandit Flynn Rider (voice of Zachary Levi) is taken hostage by Rapunzel (voice of Mandy Moore), a feisty teen with 70 feet of golden hair who’s looking for her ticket out of the tower where she’s been locked away for years, the unlikely duo sets off on a hilarious, hair-raising escapade filled with adventure, heart, humor and hair—lots of hair.

We’re all familiar with Disney movies where a Princess – or an ordinary girl who becomes one – is the main character, but it’s not very often that a Disney movie has a male lead that isn’t a talking animal or a toy (Mr. Incredible comes to mind, that was 2004). So as the mother of two boys, I was excited to see that “Tangled” has a Princess and a male main character, Flynn Rider. It’s because of Flynn that my 11 year old son agreed to go with his sister and me to see it in the theater!

“Tangled” is Walt Disney Picture’s 50th full-length animated feature, and features new songs and a score by eight-time Oscar®-winning composer/songwriter Alan Menken (“The Little Mermaid,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “Aladdin,” “Pocahontas,” and, most recently, “Enchanted”). Lyrics are by Glenn Slater, a 2008 Tony® and Grammy® nominee for his work on “The Little Mermaid.”

There’s a bunch of “Tangled” clips on the Walt Disney Animation Studios YouTube channel, including a hilarious one with Flynn and a horse that doesn’t seem to like him very much. The expressions on the horse’s face are hilarious, and Kaitlyn and I both busted out laughing when they were on the bridge and the horse smacked Flynn in the chest with his hoof. This movie is going to be SO worth paying to see in the theater!
