Yeah…yeah…it’s an ancient screenwriting tip: start in medias res. Here it is, ladies and germs, the Top 10 Ways to Fix Pixar’s Brave. Instead of just criticizing what doesn’t work, let’s workshop this sucker until it actually does. But, in what is probably the larger point, it could have been so good. For one, as the CinemaScore would suggest, Brave isn’t a bad movie–it’s just a spectacularly mediocre one as Douglas Adams would say, “mostly harmless.” Well, considering this is coming from the studio that has produced over the past 17 years a voluminous cannon of movies unmatched by anybody else in Hollywood, mediocre just doesn’t cut it for me.
Now, granted I’m sure many of you are already exceedingly weary of all the Brave chatter and articles, but a movie such as this fascinates me. Well, now that the dust has settled and the internet has gone on to complain about new things, I thought it might be an apt time to examine film in more detail. Pixar’s Brave has received a mixed critical response.
