Movie Review: Brave



The move Brave from Disney-Pixar studios was released on June 22nd in the US. Drake's Reviews just recently had the chance to see it. Brave is the story of a princess by the name of Merida. It is known as the movie that breaks from the damsel in distress played by the typical Disney princess, to the princess who is the protagonist and main hero of her own story. While I usually do not get into detail I will explain the premise of the story. Merida is a tomboyish princess and is going to be betrothed against her will with one of the prince's the first son of one of her father's 3 allies. She proposes that the 3 competing princes compete for her  hand in an archery contest something that she is an expert at, with hopes that they will fail and she can show that they are not a good match for her. From this part of the story and forward she finds herself in a world of trouble to change what is tradition in the kingdom. The movie is actually pretty funny, emotional and it teaches kids and adults alike a valuable lesson. Brave is sure to give children something to laugh about and adults something to think about, it is a great movie for the family although it does have some things that may be a bit more fit for an adult audience even though the kids wont get it. It does suffer from some scenes that just go on for too long however and may bore you in certain parts. Do stay for a post-credits scene if you're not in a rush to get to the restroom though!

Drake's Reviews Score 8 out of 10

  1. I don't know if I would call it a must be seen movie, but it does teach a very good lesson to children and adults alike. It is not the greatest animated movie I have seen, but it is a good one Paul.
