Brave 2012

When I heard of Brave, I did not think much about it.   I found the movie to be very entertaining and touching.   There were many touching moments in the show.    

It was a story of a daughter and her relationship with her parents.    It started with the father and then focused on the mother for most of the movie.   The mother was forced to be the adult and the one to bring control to the kingdom.   The pressure cause her to be serious all the time.   She also set up to match her daughter Merida to the son of one of the other three chieftains.  

This was the final straw that drove Mirilda into the forest who was guided by Will O’ the Wisps to a witch.   She obtained a tart (a spell to change her destiny).   At this stage Mirilda was only thinking of a way to get out of having to marry and want her freedom.   

Unfortunately, the tart changed her mother into a bear.   The incident allowed the mother and daughter to get to know each other.

Humor was supplied by the supporting characters like her three brothers and cook.    The three cheiftains were not in friendly terms which each other which made for a few funny scenes.

Overall, it was a wholesome family movie but was given a rating of PG-13.  

I vote this movie as one of the movies to watch for 2012.
