We’ll be compiling some notable reviews here over the next few weeks, but keep an eye on Rotten Tomatoes<\/a> for a full selection of reviews and critical consensus.<\/p>\n

"What makes <\/em>Brave truly special is that, even if it were stripped of its dazzling visuals<\/em>, laugh-out-loud humour and dynamism, it would remain a clever, arresting, and emotionally involving, yet inherently simple tale about the turbulent relationship between a mother and daughter and the fact that freedom may not be all it’s cracked up to be.<\/em>" <\/em>–HeyUGuys
\n<\/a>
\n"Adding a female director to its creative boys’ club, the studio has fashioned a resonant tribute to mother-daughter relationships that packs a level of poignancy on par with such beloved male-bonding classics as<\/em> Finding Nemo."<\/em> – Variety<\/p>\n

<\/a>"For all its pictorial and vocal beauty, the film’s emotional line and dramatic contrivances are both more familiar and less inventive than what’s usually delivered by the studio."<\/em> – THR<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

"Even if it had nothing else going for it, <\/em>Brave would surely be the only blockbuster this summer to have its protagonist exclaim, ‘Jings, crivens, help ma boab!’ […] Thankfully, though, the sweeping and stunningly beautiful film is a return to form after last year’s (relatively) disappointing <\/em>Cars 2."<\/em> – STV<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
