I’m sure I read your original post about Tangled, and for some reason I thought your boys enjoyed it so I was sad to see it made it onto the list of films they didn’t like. I think Tangled was actually one of my favorite films of the year, but then again, I am a 28-year-old woman and not a 5/7yo boy!

I liked Tangled, too. I wish Max was my very own horse. And the scene at the pub was very funny.
