We saw "Brave" and it was... okay

I've been known to assert that Disney could spoil a wet dream. Aside from the sexism and the other -isms that their movies are rife with, they pillage good stories and run them through a pap mill resulting in saccharine awful crap. Fortunately this seems not to have happened here. Mostly I thought it was an OK movie, but for Pixar it was not particularly stellar.

My biggest problem is that it's too goddamn preachy. The movie isn't simply happy to tell its story. Oh, no. It has to beat you over the head, repeatedly, with its MORAL and IMPORTANT LESSONS. When I find myself - during the climactic emotional scene - staring at the main character's hair and thinking "nice job, animators" rather than paying attention to the actual movie you know it's not good.

I'm not sorry I saw it, but I'm unlikely to see it again.
