Blu-ray Review: Brave (2012) - Page 3

Another thing Pixar excels at is providing behind the scenes looks at how their movies are made.  The film is available in a number of flavors on Blu-ray, including the five-disc "Ultimate Collector's Edition."  This bad boy sports a 3D version of the film as well as a traditional blu-ray, DVD, and digital copy.  The fifth disc, also a blu-ray, contains a load of special features.  Rather than put everything together into a single full-length behind-the-scenes piece, things here are spread out over a myriad of smaller pieces.   The titles of the various pieces may not make it completely clear what the featurette will contain, but you can be assured that it will be wholly engrossing.  Two shorts—La Luna and The Legend of Mor'du—are also included. 

There is an art to storytelling, and it is one that Pixar has mastered.  Perhaps more impressive than the fact that they are able to tell such great stories is that they do so on such a consistent basis.  They have had some misfires, but Brave isn't one of them.  As a warning, as with other Pixar films, the youngest members of the viewing audience will be scared from time to time. That caveat aside, virtually everyone in the family will thoroughly enjoy themselves with Brave.
