Being Brave - Review

What are you doing this weekend?
Nothing...

Not anymore you aren't.

This weekend/tomorrow/next week/ next month, you are going to make a trip to the cinema.

Whenever you decide to go it doesn't matter - just make sure it's before the newest Disney movie stops showing. Trust me you'll want to see it.

The movie? Brave. To put it simply; it's amazing.

Whether you have children and need to entertain them, are young or old, everyone is going to love this movie. Truely.

The setting: Brave takes us to medieval Scottland, where the scenery is breathtaking, the beards are flowing and the kilts are...kilting?
Only Disney/Pixar can take an animated movie, and place the viewer in it's story. Making the animation obsolete to the point where you don't look at it as animation - but real.
I'm not going to go into the storyline because I wouldn't want to ruin it for anyone (especially now that you're going to go see it) but in usual Disney fashion, it is heartfelt, beautiful, makes you laugh, makes you cry, and gives your heart that warm, fuzzy feeling at the end.

They have truely surpassed themselves.
The last Disney/Pixar movie I saw (from what I can remember) was Tangled. And that movie was good.
But there's something about Brave that makes you want to cheer like a crazed Celt.

The storyline has this "twist" that (I at least) didn't expect - and in true Disney style of course, it is resolved.
The resolution was a little obvious, but hey, it's a children's movie.

The voices of famous actors is something to keep an eye (or ear) out for.
I'll give one away and say *cough* Billy Connelly *cough*
- Well, you can always look it up on the internet anyway, so that's not that secretive.

For years, (and if I had time I'd look it up) Disney has been entertaining the world with their characters and the worlds they live in.
I remember myself watching Toy Story as a child and even remember seeing A Bug's Life in the cinema - I was afraid of the grasshoppers.

So maybe that's why me and my friend were so keen for the latest Disney masterpiece.
As an adult now, I probably should stop going to the cinema to see these children's films (and on the day it was released too) and watch something older.

But as long as Disney keep producing pieces of magic (which let's face it will be never) I will continue to stroll over to my nearest cinema.
And I'll love to go.

So if you want to be like me and be a child again, or maybe you have children to entertain. Go on...go see Brave.
I hope you love it as much as I did.
