The New York Times has nice things to say about Tangled:
... By some measures this is classic Disney storytelling. There is a princess at the center, the mother figure is the villain, and the setting is magical. It’s loaded with physical humor. ... “I think we’re there,” Mr. Lasseter said of a creative turnaround at Disney. “This film is as good as a Pixar film, but it’s classic Disney, and I love that: heart, humor, beauty, music, wonderment, the love story.” ...
I think the film will do just fine at the global box office. I've been staring at alluring bits and pieces of it on Disney computer monitors for a long time now. Come next week, I'll watch the whole thing at an AMC near me.

Those comments from Lasseter are the same as the ones used to promote TPATF.

When John finds himself a good monologue, he works it.
Except that with Tangled, it's true
Saw Tangled and it's awesome, I think it will do fine at the box office. Marketing for the film is terrible though
What sucks is that Disney/Lasseter blamed marketing when Princess and the Frog did poorly, when in reality, it had a mediocre story.
But now, the marketing for Tangled really IS terrible, but the quality of the movie will give it a good box office, and marketing will think they did a good job.
Irony...
