Just as Dimension Pictures provided Kirsten Dunst with her best and sexiest role in the spider-free "Crazy/Beautiful" -- now Rachael Leigh Cook with a part in "Tangled" that brings out the full range of her talent as an actress, and her magnetic sex appeal.Two young men are best friends, but one has Rachael Leigh Cook for his girl friend. A common problem in real life but seldom in non-comedy movies, the other guy likes Rachael but of course he keeps this buried and quietly accepts the fact that Rachael wants and belongs to the other guy. But things can change.......There is a 1 minute 43 second scene which I've lifted from the movie and show people as "Almost Two Minutes in Paradise" --- one man's dream is fulfilled after a 2 year effort including betrayal and literally stabbing his best friend in the back: Rachael wakes up and after kissing the guy on the cheek begins a ragging fit screeching about her not finding her cigarettes. When her Marlboro's are found after numerous 4 letter words and slamming around, the seizure stops and she coyly smiles in the young man's face. True happiness! Great moments are NOT romantic moonlit walks on the beach. Such ideas are for shallow losers. Great romantic moments are being with a 90 lb spitfire, full of life, overloading your heart, ragging on a guy at 8 AM before the coffee's had time to drip.

A great film, the actors, especially Jonathan Rhys Meyers played very well and the events in the film are exciting! The end was really shocking for me! Alan (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers) falls in love with Jenny and they have an affair, however, there is still the jealous friend (DAVID) of them who is fallen in love with Jenny, he does everything to be with Jenny!I believe that he was never better than Jonathan Rhys-Meyers! As said, the film is exciting with pair of quite cool scenes:)I also think that every JONNY fan should see the film and not only the fans :)

This movie needed more than help, someone shouldn't have released it at all.1. The storyline stank.2. The time I lost watching this movie, I can NEVER regain!3. Someone must have had money to burn to want to actually finance this movie!4. The beginning of the movie barely introduces the characters and it took too long to get to the point. You could already figure the movie out by the time the second flashback occurs. 5. No suspense and no point...6. What a waste of time for actors who barely bothered to act in this movie!!!I'm surprised someone actually claimed credit for writing and directing this sorry excuse for a movie....

When I received my copy of Tangled, I was expecting something not up to scale, but finally, I was quite surprised by the end result...This story of a love triangle, as told by a guy (David) who tries to survive an accident is a déjà-vu subject, but the use of flashbacks is like a piece of the puzzle, which we see the full result at the end of the movie.Rachael Leigh Cook did produce partly this movie, but it is sad that this movie hasn't been released on a wide basis (mostly for lack of interest). However, she passes the mark here. And shows that she has some sex appeal. Just for proof, she is better than Estella Warren here, who is a complete bore...Shawn Hatosy is a bit weak in the role of David, but Jonathan Rhys-Meyer steals the show as Alan here. Hoping this guy gets better roles one day as he shines here. Even I would say he was better than Ms.Cook (which I am a fan)... Good job also by Lorraine Bracco, that we never see often in motion pictures (I remember her in Medecine Man and GoodFellas...).The script is good, and the Toronto settings are quite convenient (just wondering if the story is settled in the U.S. or Toronto itself). The movie is quite entertaining, and of much better fare than those "Based on a true story" type films...Watch it if you like watching a story built like a good jigsaw puzzle, in which the end might surprise you !
