New movie list Brave Merida is a skilled archer and impetuous daughter of King Fergus (Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (Emma Thompson). Determined to carve her own path in life, Merida defies an age-old custom sacred to the uproarious lords of the land: massive Lord MacGuffin (Kevin McKidd), surly Lord Macintosh (Craig Ferguson) and cantankerous Lord Dingwall (Robbie Coltrane). Merida's actions inadvertently unleash chaos and fury in the kingdom, and when she turns to an eccentric old Witch (Julie Walters) for help, she is granted an ill-fated wish. The ensuing peril forces Merida to discover the meaning of true bravery in order to undo a beastly curse before it's too late. -- (C) Disney Release Date Brave Jun 22, 2012 Wide | |

Review For Brave |
The story, with its patchwork of plots (involving feuding clans and disastrous spells), holds together enough to thrill intermittently. Bruce Diones-New Yorker
Though it falls short of the studio's best in many respects, Brave is ravishing to look at. Merida's carrot corona is alone worth the price of admission. Christopher Orr-The Atlantic
The tone is uneven and more often morose than joyful. The pacing is slow and at times almost tedious. The end result is something that feels like it was put together from a jumble of Disney clichés tacked onto the skeleton of Beauty and the Beast. James Berardinelli-ReelViews
Saying that Brave is entertaining but not astonishing is pretty much admitting your straight-A student got a B. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
It's a safe experience; but safe, in this case, is better than sorry. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor
The Pixar name used to mean something. And it never quite meant pleasantly safe, safely forgettable movies like this. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger
Although the previews would have you believe that the film was an epic journey for the flame-haired firebrand, we are really treated (or deprived, depending on expectation) to a humble, small scale morality play. Jordan Hiller-Bangitout.com
Brave is yet another spectacular animated film released on Blu-Ray with the highest picture and audio quality. Jeremy Lebens-We Got This Covered
The freedom quest of a feisty Celtic princess with a jungle of wild red hair. Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice
"Brave" is the first foray in fairytale storytelling for "Pixar," and their first contribution to the growing pantheon of Disney princesses. It works so well that we can safely assume that it won't be the last fairytale coming out of Emeryville. James Plath-Movie Metropolis
Not a bad movie. Really appreciate what it wants to do, but it fails to live up to its potential. Michelle Alexandria-Eclipse Magazine
The hopping lamp gang has done it again, giving birth to a sharp, fresh fairy tale that in the pantheon of Pixar releases may not go down as a centerpiece, but comes close enough to the bullseye to sate moviegoing subjects kingdom-wide. Erick Weber-NECN
Steps outside the boundaries of what seems like a rather conventional tale at the outset, and subsequently elevates itself into something else entirely. Steve Wright-SciFiNow
A marvellous magical adventure, that'll perhaps stand the test of time even better than some of Pixar's movies we right now call classics. Sam Bathe-Fan The Fire
While it doesn't break a lot of new ground, Brave is a beautiful and competent entry in Disney's robust fairytale film pedigree. Ben Kendrick-ScreenRant
While Brave is a mile ahead of other animated features hitting our screens, it does feel like a lesser Pixar work. Adam Ross-The Aristocrat
Kids will probably enjoy it for its beautiful design, but the adults in the audience will probably be wondering why Pixar decided to skimp on the story this time around. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com
A film that truly lives up to its name, Brave gives animated princesses a much-needed reboot. Kristal Cooper-We Got This Covered
Overflowing with heart, vibrant color, thrilling adventure, and with a bold new protagonist to add to the Disney canon, Pixar's "Brave" is a wonderfully unique spin on the classic princess tale. Justin Craig-FoxNews.com
The film's real strength is in the central relationship, which pays off in a way that's far more delicate and complex than most animated films would dare Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall
In many respects, it's one of the most mature animated films to come out of Disney or Pixar in their long, storied careers. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline
The backgrounds are too realistic and there's no warmth and little magic in the story and the characters. Philip French-Observer [UK]
Strip away the Highland myth and mystery and the heart of the story is a prickly mother-daughter relationship. Just watch the sparks fly when the irresistible force that is a wilful teenager meets the immovable object incarnated by a stubborn mother. Jason Best-Movie Talk
A wonderful piece of cinematic engineering, story and character in perfect harmony. Richard Edwards-SFX Magazine
[T]urns the Disney-princess paradigm upside down and inside out... [Y]es, it is possible to tell a story about a female protagonist that is not about finding romance. MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher
Brave isn't quite up there with Up, but it's still a masterfully-animated, ripping yarn with plenty of cross-generational appeal. -Film4
