One might reasonably assume that the Golden Age of Pixar has now passed us by.
No, it’ll lack the classic status of past Pixar alumni, and I doubt the re-watch factor is going to be as high as, say, Toy Story 3, but Brave rises above most of the dreck from Hollywood’s stable of stars to deliver a rousing, magical, often scary – and yet flawed – animated feature that just doesn’t quite cut it by comparison. There’s a sense of unoriginal motivation within the framework of the narrative, and a couple of the plot points can be seen coming from a mile away (which is a sad day for Pixar, who’re usually so clever at this kind of thing) but as a film, it’s still exceptionally magnificent. What we think : Brave lacks the classic Pixar touch – it’s nowhere near as memorable as Monsters Inc or Toy Story, for example – but is an entertaining film in its own right. Synopsis: A young Scottish princess rebels against her mothers wish to have her choose a suitable suitor for marriage from three fellow clans – the pair butt heads, inevitably leading to a clash of wills that will have consequences for them both. Principal Cast : Kelly Macdonald, Emma Thompson, Billy Connolly, Robbie Coltrane, Kevin McKidd, Craig Ferguson, Sally Kinghorn, Julie Walters, Steve Purcell.
