My Opinion of the Movie
To tell you all the truth I didn't think I would like this movie. So when I was younger I watched the movie all the way until I thought Flynn left and didn't watch it for almost 8 years. I really liked the ending of this movie. I thought the character that the creators made were amazing and to share a secret with you Rupanzel is very pretty. This isn't a movie I would watch 100 times, but the plot was amazing not your old run of the mill fairy tales they put a little twist on it. The last reason why I loved this movie is the bad guy died in the end. Most Disney movies the bad guy gets thrown in jail or put in a dungeon from 100 years or put in a magic lamp. I liked that the bad guy died at the end I just really think that it tied the whole movie together. Of course also the wedding at the end and Rapunzel and Flynn living happily ever after.
