Friday’s openings redux: It’s a ‘Tangled’ story

Here's an update to the blog post that I sent out Tuesday regarding Friday's openings:

Looks as if neither "A Question of Faith" nor "Til Death Do Us Part" will open locally. However, AMC River Park Square will screen the 2010 animated film "Tangled" as part of its Dream Big, Princess series.

"Tangled" received an 89 percent rating among critics on Rotten Tomatoes. Among the critical comments:

Richard Corliss, Time magazine: "This is your basic, and very enjoyable, Disney princess musical, an empowerment tale to teach bright, dreamy girls how to grow to maturity — and outgrow the adults in charge." 

Claudia Puig, USA Today: "Tangled braids strands of traditional storytelling and a contemporary sensibility with stylish if predictable results."

Ann Hornaday, Washington Post: "The result is an uncommonly pretty visual experience, especially during a climactic scene when hundreds of lanterns are sent aloft into the night sky. One thousand points of light never looked so fetching."
