Looks great, lame story

Rating: 4/10 (3 November 2012)

If it weren't for the Pixar logo, you'd think Brave was a lame straight- to-video Disney movie.
Things start out OK and you think it might have to do with a girl fighting an enemy for her country. Then she starts seeing fairies in the forest. Oh OK...I thought it was going to be somewhat down-to-earth but now it's supernatural. Maybe it'll still be good. What, now there's freaking cauldrons and witches? This movie is starting to go downhill... Oh no, now the mother turns into a bear? What has this got to do with archery and Scottish highlands? Now nobody believes that the bear is the mother and hunts her down? Oh geez this is just Disney crap rehashed.
In between scenes of the bear in the forest, all you get are people standing around talking long-winded conversations about heirs to the throne. Must be rather boring for kids.
If you don't see Brave, you're not missing much.
