Storyline: 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

Rotten Tomatoes Top Critics

  • “No, not another Pixar classic, but for full-on family fun it’s a brave effort.” – Trevor Johnston, Time Out
  • “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 cliches 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
