This is the Nostalgia Critic reacting to the ending of Disney's "Tangled" (I still think they should've stuck with "Rapunzel" though). Of course, if any of you have seen Nostalgia Critic's review of "Pokemon: The First Movie", then odds are you're gonna find this hilarious.

Okay, just so we're clear on this, I don't hate "Tangled"; I love everything about that movie, including the ending. This video was just made for comedy purposes only. I agree with many people that this is one of the saddest scenes in the entire film, but I'm not attacking it. For people who are unfamiliar with the Nostalgia Critic, his character is suppose to be an over-the-top cynic who overreacts to everything happening in the films he watches, so this is more of a video poking fun at how he would react after seeing this scene (BTW, if you've seen his review for "Pokemon: The First Movie", then you're probably gonna find this video really funny) than it is an attack on this scene or the entire movie itself. Also, if anyone brings it up, yes, I am aware of the context of how the original Brothers Grimm story ended (I've been read that story since I was a kid), so there's no need to tell me otherwise. If you're at all offended by this video, fine. Stop watching and hit the dislike button if you will, but PLEASE stop assuming that just because I made this video, that I hate the movie "Tanged" because I DON'T!

  • To be honest, that's what I thought about the ending. I like Tangled but this scene always bugged me. So cliché, so cheesy, pretty expected, and such a letdown. It was a bit of a shocker he died at that point, rather daring and his sacrifice was touching...buuuuuut then that happened, I was like, "Really? Really?!"

  • @r2grcg Well, if you think about it, even without knowing about the original Brother's Grimm story, Rapunzel received her magic hair from the magic flower prenatally, observing into her body, so when her hair is cut, the last of her magic is observed into her tears, hence what brought back Eugene from the dead. Farfetched, maybe, but heck, in the original story, its never explained or implied at all why Rapunzel has magic healing tears that can cure blindness.

  • I watched this on my iPod and it doesn't show captions

  • @FairysRule206 Oh I see.

  • Oops sorry

  • @FairysRule206 Yeah, thats why I have the caption below that says "PLEASE read description below."

  • The sad thing is this is actually somewhat in line with the actual fairy tale. In the actual tale the guy who rescues her falls into a thorn bush, blinding him. Rapunzel's tears actually restore his eye sight.

    And that's WITHOUT a magic flower in her body. This is probably the most justified case of tears as Deux ex Machina there is.

  • that was actually his reaction to pokemon: the first movie, when the pokemon cried and brought Ash/Satoshi back to life

    XD

  • @r2grcg Hell, when I watched the Pokemon movie for the first time, I was actually reminded of the Rapunzel story because she used her tear to help the prince to see again (because he was blinded by thorns). The Rapunzel story came first and I was wondering if Tangled was also going to use the healing tear like in the original story and they did.

  • 0:57 I thought he likes this movie LOL now his saying its stupid omg.

  • I cried for like a minute while watching this and the minute he came back to life again I was like WHOA HIS ALIVE LOL Brilliant movie though.

  • Oh of course, the missing ingredient; Rapunzel tears mixed with the heart of Inspector Gadget while magic moonbeams rain from above during rhe chanting of "We care" after taking him to the Genesis planet. WHOOPSIE! :P

  • I like this version

  • this is edited by the video from the response video above
