So it isn’t that I don’t like the concept or the formula. If you go even further back, I’d argue that Beauty & The Beast is a strong contender for the title of “best Disney animated film” (with The Lion King perhaps the only other real contender). Indeed, I think that the studio’s Tangled was one of the best family films of the last year, and it was firmly entrenched within the classic “princess” mold. Is Brave just a Pixar “princess” movie, the spiritual successor to the long line of Disney “princess” movies?ĭon’t get me wrong here. I can’t help but feel that – despite the fact it’s their first film that isn’t a sequel in quite some time – we’ve seen this all before. However, despite my deep-biding affection for classics like Wall-E, Up, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles or any of the Toy Story films, I can’t seem to be too concerned about the approaching release of the studio’s latest animated effort. The studio is, after all, responsible for quite a few modern classics – those rare cinematic treats that the entire family can sit down and enjoy together. To be honest, the notion of an original Pixar movie should be a breath of fresh air after the incredibly disappointing Cars 2. I have to admit, I’m having a hard time getting too excited about Brave.
