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 !
