I don't know why this movie got bad reviews. I think it is an adorable children's movie with funny moments and real-life moral dilemmas and situations. It is relatable, whilst at the same time, goes off in a way that is more make-believe.This movie is about Kenai, a man who resents all bears, after his brothers get into a fight with one, and is sadly killed. I don't like Kenai's attitude towards bears at the beginning of the movie. After all, the bear was just protecting itself, just like any human would. Kenai is then turned into a bear to see what it's like to be in a bears "shoes". He sees life from a new and different perspective and realizes that not it really wasn't the bears fault. On his journey, he meets an adorable bear cub, Koda, who is trying to find his way home. Meanwhile, Kenai's other brother worries that he has been killed by the bears, until he comes face-to-face with bear Kenai. Overall, I give this movie an 8 out of 10.

This is probably my favorite Disney movie. I love all Disney movies but this is definitely my favorite. I think the soundtrack is amazing one of my favorite songs is, "On My Way." The reason I gave the movie a 9 instead of a 10 is because the movie is very sad at some parts. I think this movie sends an amazing message. I also think this movie underrated. This movie really sends you a message about how you should handle difficult situations. Koda is adorable and Rut and Tuk are really really funny. This movie did make me cry because it was so touching. I feel like watching it right now but I can't because my disk is scratched which makes me sad but i'll probably download it on Itunes or something.

I think this a very heart warming story for all ages!! It also shares a lesson that bears and people can get along and we can live for peacefully then what many people think! I am giving this a 7 because despite it's wonderful plot and story line there are some major moments in this movie where I cried like a baby!! For those of you have seen Bambi or other Disney movies you will know that almost every one of there movies actually does have 2 or more parts that really do make you cry like a baby!!! When I first watched this in the theatres I was like okay so I am going to see a Disney movie with my son so I am sure we will both enjoy a quiet night out and seeing a new Disney movie. When I left the theatre I was kike wow I almost want to go out and buy this movie again because it was just that good of movie!!! In fact I did go out and buy It right after we left the theatre and my son watched it again when we got back and I asked him why are you watching brother bear again and he said, I love it that much!! So in total I really think this is the best movie Disney as ever made!!

This is the type of movie Disney was synonymous with making pre-2000's. Ever since the introduction of 3D animation, it seems that not enough is being focused on the story and more on giving the audience something to "ooh" and "ahh" at. I feel like Brother Bear was the last Disney film to connect on as deep and an emotional level as Lion King or any pre 2000 animated film. I'm 16 and I cried during this movie and have yet to have that type of experience with any Disney animated film past 2003. Truly an excellent and deep script, some could argue too deep for a G rating let alone a kids film. Plus the execution was remarkable, the lush lands animated by hand will always surpass, on a storytelling level, 3D. 3D feels too in-personal.Of everything awesome in this film, the soundtrack is the most remarkable. Phil Collins should've worked with Disney on every film because he did SUCH and amazing job on the music in this movie. Its a shame brother Bear didn't win the Oscar for best animated film. Instead, Finding Nemo did, which looking back, Brother Bear is a much better film.Disney has lost its original drive. Now its only about rating rather than the content. Brother Bear being the turning point.
