 My Rating: 7/10

So when I saw the trailers for this movie, I knew I had to go and see it. It was a Disney Pixar film. How could I not see it? Well, I was very excited for this movie but was somewhat disappointed when I saw it. The beginning started out promising with Merida standing up for herself. I think it all went downhill when she ran into the witch and had her mother cursed. For some reason, I felt having the whole plot of the story trying to turn her mother back into a human was weak. When I saw the trailers, I got the impression that Merida would journey out of her town and have an adventure of her own. Instead, all that happened was that she made a mistake and spent most if it trying to figure out a fairly simple way to undo the curse. Perhaps if undoing the curse was more complicated, then it would have been slightly more interesting.

• Although it was cute, the plot was not strong enough to capture my interest
• Very good beginning
• I did like the scenes with the mother daughter bonding, that was quite well done
