Though the movie heavily focuses on a mother- daughter relationship, it's not just for girls anymore than Mulan was. Underneath the folk-tale storyline lies the same life lessons that ring true for young and old. In fact, amid the magic spells and tall tales of times gone by, it's the historical, Scottish feeling that made Marida's journey and transformation (and that of her mother) that much more tangible and familiar. By the end of the movie, what once sounded foreign blended into the scenery and visuals to create a completely immersing environment. As odd and understandably foreign as the accents felt watching the early previews for the movie, the voice acting was executed following, creating very real characters that fit their animated molds perfectly. In a journey of magic, adventure and family, the fiery Scot is launched into the ranks of the elite Disney princesses.

The Disney-Pixar animated feature focuses on Princess Merida as she searches for a way to change her fate. Because if Merida does not make a stand here, she is going to be a doormat for the rest of her life.Everything about Brave is different from the Pixar norm, save the unequaled attention to detail and quality. Careless, maybe(like nobody ever learned anything from 'Macbeth' concerning witches in Scotland) but not selfish. Even worse is how the movie harps on Merida's so-called selfishness. But at the same time, Pixar's DNA commingling with Disney's is taking shape, and it's not entirely pretty, as there are also anachronistic silliness and minor vulgarities here.

With the entertaining 'Brave,' Pixar's winning streak of high quality animation continues.

All of whom she promptly embarrasses with her superior bow skills, before getting in an argument with her mother and then running away into the forest where she comes across a witch minding her business. But as a princess, she has certain responsibilities that her younger brothers do not, like presiding over a competition of three suitors for her hand in marriage. In 'Brave,' Merida would like nothing more than to run around with her bow and arrow all day.
