Review of Brother Bear (2003) by Ashley D — 15 Nov 2015

A great movie for the family. Brother bear is Disney's attempt to teach children that we are all Brothers, from the smallest of creatures to the biggest. How we can all learn from each other; something that Native Americans have always known.

This movie is great because it takes you on a great adventure filled with love. The music is amazing. The best song was sung by the great Tina Turner. Being that it is a Disney animation you know it will be a huge production.

I watched this with my niece who is eight and she loved it. She wanted to watch it again. Brother Bear has some comedic scenes which I thought were great and funny. The ceremony for Kenai, the main character, was great.

This movie has some sad moments and very heroic moments as well. A great scene is when Kenai is turned into a bear. That being said Brother Bear is a tearjerker even though it is animation. The scenes with the lights and the spirits is just beautiful telling the tales of the bravest of the bravest in the Native American culture.

All of the voice overs are great they make you wish that animals could actually talk which is what my niece said after watching. Brother Beat has a great message of the love and forgiveness with sacrifice.

Just like all Disney animated movies Brother Bear is one movie you should have in your collection. The only downside to the movie is that if you are looking for a movie children's movie that is more educational on Native Americans then I would recommend it but for a family night in this is a great choice.
