'Tangled' is a 2011 animated adventure comedy directed by Nathan Greno and Byron Howard. The film explores themes of truth, family, perception , love and the exploration of an individuals character, we follow our protagonist Rapunzel as she discovers the outside world after being trapped and exploited for her magical power since she was a young child. Her journey made possible due the unexpected arrival of thief Flynn Rider who is currently on the run from various characters due to his illegal antics. The misunderstanding of many characters due to judging them from appearance was a consistent theme emphasised throughout the film, the 'mothers' vanity being the reason in which she had originally taken Rapunzel. The appearance of many of the characters met at the ugly duckling automatically allowing us to construct negative opinions on them due to the stereotypical brute/villan displayed in many films, Tangled cleverly flips this opinion leaving the audience shocked when we realise the only real antagonist is the 'mother'.
