Brave

Good enough for one viewing, but afterwards I laughed out loud at the thought of ever watching Brave again. An animated average that doesn't entertain as well as an adult would expect it to, and it’s only really good as part of a children's programme during the lazy Christmas holidays. It’s a shame.

I’m surprised at how much I enjoyed it. A nice story, perfect animation, great atmosphere, and non-violently “educational”. Perhaps is not as original as previous Pixar films, but it’s still very nice. I was expecting a variation of “a princess has to marry an ugly prince, but she loves a poor peasant”, but what I got was a touching fairytale about a daughter-mother relationship. I’m satisfied.

A fairytale for moms and their daughters. Entertaining, playful and visually engaging Irish buffoonery with family values as a bonus. The overall conception reminds me more of a Disney movie than a Pixar “go get ‘em movie, slightly different again" movie. The teddy-bear style of the story adds to its cuteness, but shows narrative structures already seen. But still, it’s a pleasant watch. Brave is a must for girls both little and big. (11/04/2012)

The first Pixar film that can be talked or written about as a fairy tale. That is not a bad thing. Especially after the super action-packed Cars 2, it was time to take a breather, so a nice story (with a dull message) came in handy. The perfect technical aspect is a matter of course, but the "adult" humor has somewhat diminished and Brave is rather a showcase of various visual or almost sitcom gags. (11/20/2012)

I really, really needed to relax. These cartoons are exactly what one needs once in a while; one meaning me. In any case, it was a really nice fairytale. I liked how they played around with the Scottish environments and with the overall atmosphere of the sceneries and kings ofthose times. It was really nice, but I would have chosen a more epic story for that kind of an environment. The bears didn’t really sit well with me. And that was the biggest issue. But both the animation and the music were truly nice and that’s what made me stay and watch it till the end. And I felt really nice afterwards. (05/26/2013)
