Brave

 

Brave tells the story of Princess Merida, a strong-willed Scottish young lady, who prefers to walk to her own beaten path and refuses to bend to her mother’s will of the age-old custom of betrothal; set during medieval times in the Scottish Highlands. When her mother falls victim to a curse, Merida must look within herself to find the key to break the curse, before it is too late. 

Even though the plot was predictable and a bit played out with its Freaky Friday-esque, inspiration, I still thought it was entertaining. The script brought great themes around female empowerment, making your own path in the world, family and community

Brave is the first Disney/Pixar animated film with a female protagonist and their only Pixar Princess. So when I found out that the film was dedicated to Steve Jobs, who had a major influence in getting his film made, before his death and the film's release, I thought it was really great. Overall this one was cute, family friendly, full of heart and one I’d recommend checking out.
