The Brave

It was nice, yes, but really nothing special, for me. I realize Merida was angry , she was being forced to marry a complete stranger so young, but she really behaved like a spoiled child. She publicly disobeyed during the tournament, winning it, so to obtein her own hand and avoid the marriage, but by doing so she risked to throw the kingdom into chaos, because by breaking the tradition she could have caused a war among the four clans.
Like a spoiled child she then ask the witch a spell to change her destiny, and when she gives that cursed pasty to her mother she transforms her into a bear! From now on, it's all Merida trying to save her and make amends for the big trouble she has made.
To be honest, the ending was too easy : the three clan listen to this child telling them they should change things and break the old traditions, and they simply agree. Ridiculous, and dangerous, because it is not that simple to change people's minds. It never is.
Anyway, the nicest scene was at the end, when she cries and admits she made a mistake, and that she wants her mum back, as she was before.
Nice and touching :-)
I add that for once the songs were really nothing special.
