Brave: more than cute


I'm a little late on this one, but I am pleased that I got a chance to see it during what will propbably be its last week in theaters.  The trailer left much to be desired, but I could not ignore the positive reviews, and am happy to report it did not do the film justice (whoever cut that 1:20 spot might need rethink his or her career path).  While it does center around a spritely redhead with a resolve not to be married off, it is far more substantive.  It is a touching story of family and fate, even with a little bit of fist-fight. Similar to how Finding Nemo served up a lesson for both father and son, Pixar has done it again, swapping a Scottish mother-daughter duo for the father and son clownfish. 
Verdict: if you can find it in a theater near you (go for it)
