Pixar look to restore some of their critical sheen; after
Cars 2 became a one of their very few critical failures, if still a financial hit.
(A Bugs Life is still their weakest film by a distance for me.)
Synopsis...
“Since ancient times, stories of epic battles and mystical
legends have been passed through the generations across the rugged and
mysterious Highlands of Scotland. In "Brave," a new tale joins the
lore when the courageous Merida (voice of Kelly Macdonald) confronts tradition,
destiny and the fiercest of beasts. Merida is a skilled archer and impetuous
daughter of King Fergus (voice of Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (voice of
Emma Thompson). Determined to carve her own path in life, Merida defies an
age-old custom sacred to the uproarious lords of the land: massive Lord
MacGuffin (voice of Kevin McKidd), surly Lord Macintosh (voice of Craig
Ferguson) and cantankerous Lord Dingwall (voice of Robbie Coltrane). Merida's
actions inadvertently unleash chaos and fury in the kingdom, and when she turns
to an eccentric old Wise Woman (voice of Julie Walters) for help, she is
granted an ill-fated wish. The ensuing peril forces Merida to discover the
meaning of true bravery in order to undo a beastly curse before it's too late.”
