When I mentioned to Kyle that I'd seen this movie, he asked why I had little kids with me. I didn't. A group of adults went, and we all quite enjoyed it.
The story, of course, is basically Rapunzel, but Disney-fied and turned into a musical. The Disney-fication includes adding fun animals and the usual adorable characters--all of which makes the movie sound less and less appealing.
This film, though works. The writing is good and tells an interesting story. The characters have real relationships. Some awful things happen--as they should. It provides several moments of on-screen magic. You get the idea: It's a good movie.
As long as you don't consider yourself too grown-up for cartoons (and if you do, let me introduce you to some awesome anime flicks, not to mention almost everything Pixar has done),
Tangled is well worth your time.
