Brave

The main problem is that Merida craves adventure but Brave limits her to mother-daughter psychodrama.

By the climax, at which all right-thinking viewers will have dissolved in a puddle of warm appreciation, the new Pixar film has earned two cheers and a big bear hug.

The story for this revisionist fairy tale, which promotes contemporary attitudes about parenting and gender equality, is less inspired than usual for Pixar, but the movie upholds the studio's high standard of computer animation.

So, the moral of the story is as they say in Brave..."change your fate by mending the bonds you break". A lesson and wise words for us all.
