Response Essay- Merrida

Have you ever wanted to change your fate? If you have, you will understand this movie well. What is the movie name? It's called , BRAVE. To summerize the main story, there is a Princess called Merrida. Unlike other princess, like cinderella, or snow white, she loves to go outside and shoot arrows. But her mother, Elinor was different from her. She wanted merida to be a perfect princess, and told Merrida to be one. Because Merrida and Elinor was so different, they fought often. Although they fought, Elinor loved Merrida. Elinor wanted Merrida to choose one of the oldest princes from all over the world, and marry him. But Merrida didn't want to get married. She was so angry that she ran away. Then, she found an old house. Inside, there was a witch, and Merrida asked the witch to change her mother. Witch gives her a piece of cake. Merrida gave it to her mother, and her mother changes into a bear. Merrida thought her father will kill the bear. So her mother and she ran away. Merrida finds the old house, but instead of a witch, there was a message. 'The spell becomes permanent after 2 days.' Soon after they left witch's house, Merrida finds the answer. Mend the tapestry that she had cut. On her way to the castle, her father sees his wife, and tries to kill her. But luckly, she gets away, and lives. It was almost 2nd sunrise. She mends the tapestry, but prince mor'du, who was also turned into a bear. attcked them. But a stone fell over and hit mor'du. on the 2nd sunrise, sunlights shown over the tapestry. Then, her mother was human again. This is the brief summary about BRAVE. I think my characteristic and personality is similar to Merrida for 2 reasons. First, I like going outside like Merrida. Going outside makes me feel good. Also, I like to play withy arrows. My father made one for me just like Merrida's father did. The things that I don't like merrida is not trying. If I was Merrida, I would go to Elinor and tell why I don't want to get married. Also, I would listen to others. I would listen to why she wanted me to get married. If merrida fix this, I'm sure she will become a better princess. The thing I didn't mention in this essay is about prince mor'du. He is a selfish prince who wanted to rule himself rather than deviding with other 3 princes. The result is that he turned into a bear. So selfishness brings up unhappiness. I don't think BRAVE is a worst movie, but I don't like it. It is too unrealistic. But this movie makes us learn about fate. I wish I can watch this movie again.

  1. There is too much summary in your response. The really interesting part of your writing is about what you think and feel about this movie.

    Also, at the end you wrote that you didn't like this movie, but you want to see it again. I don't understand.
