It's been two weeks since I got this movie. And just now I watched it for the fifth time! And still enjoyed every minute of it. The first time around, even though I enjoyed the songs, I thought they were nothing special. But then I couldn't stop listening to them and now I think they are great.
Rapunzel is just a fun character to watch. And also is Pascal, her pet chameleon. Usually I don't like animal sidekicks all that much, but Pascal is just a riot. It's a good choice that they didn't make him a talking animal. He is funny just with the looks he gives. It's worth rewatching the movie just for him by concentrating on him instead of Rapunzel. They are some stuff he does that I missed the first time around.
The following is my favourite song in this movie. In my opinion it gets across the character of Rapunzel perfectly. Mandy Moore did a perfect job in my opinion.



Currently my favourite Disney movie.

"Due South" marathon, a review by Rick

Bird in the Hand
A decent episode. I agree with Tom, if not for Fraser's Dad it would have just been a "meh" episode.

The Promise
Again I find myself agreeing with Tom. The episode was a bit boring. There was too much stuff going on. There were so many stories they could have told they ended up not doing well with any of them.
