Merida is a young girl who does NOT want her future planned out for her.

Rating: 10/10 (7 March 2013)

I LOVED it and don't understand the negative reviews. I took my ten year old cousin to see it as well and she LOVED it. Not to mention it was beautifully done, funny and had a great plot and had moral lessons ! I was so happy she was seeing women displayed in such an empowering way. Merida can take care of herself, is strong willed and knows what she wants in life. However, her mother has it planned out for her. She wants her to marry and Merida just doesn't want to. So, Merida goes to a witch to seek help. She gets a spell that will make her mom agree to whatever she says so she doesn't have to marry. However, the spell turns her mom into a bear and Merida has only 24 hours to turn her mom back into normal. Hilarity, drama and action ensue on Merida's quest to turn her mother back into a human ! Great for the entire family, and if you have a daughter or a younger sister, go see it with them !
