Brother Bear 2

Along with Pocahontas 2, the other Disney sequel I'm surprised got made is Brother Bear 2 because, well, yeah, for kinda the same reason. The first one wasn't very good and didn't do very well and from what I heard, this one wasn't much of an improvement over the first. In fact, some said they hated it. And, yeah, that's what I though too. Just another predictable, boring, overused script and story we've heard a ton of times before. That's not to say there isn't anything good in it, there are a couple, but it's still just another bland Disney sequel that you watch and just wish it to end. What's the story? Kenai is still a bear again living with the others and there's this woman he once knew as a child named Nita who's about to get married to another guy but then they're separated when some ice literally splits in half and now they're away from each other. Some old woman tells Nita that Kenai is for her so she finds him and the woman gives her something to talk to him now because he's a bear. So now they have to destroy some amulet but they do absolutely nothing but constantly fight all the time and act like they don't like each other. But, of course they do begin to fall in love but Koda wants to stop that from happening. Uh-huh, again, sound familiar?

Thankfully, not as hateable as that, but still. Rutt and Tuke are also back with two new female moose and they're starting to fall in love too. And, as you'd expect, that also has a ton of dumb clichés. You know what's going to happen, They're going to learn to appreciate each other and love each other and all that sorta of blah-blah-blah stuff. There's just a ton of nonstop clichés all over the place. They don't even try to add anything new to them. As soon as you see Kenai and Nita fighting, you know what's going to happen. They're gonna act like they don't like each other but eventually get together with someone or something trying to stop them and then at the end after the climax, you know what's gonna happen there too. Nita get's turned into a bear herself. Same for Rutt and Tuke with them trying to win over the female moose's, they want to act cool but they learn that they just have to be themselves. How dumb can you do that? Like this. They just don't know how to do it. I will say this though, for as dumb as it is, and don't worry, it's is really stupid and annoying, but there is the animation that looks great. It looks just like the first movie. Everything you see is great looking. Okay, I don't know if I'd say it's the best looking but it is one of the best looking. Aside from that, it's just the kinda sorta story you've heard everywhere. The characters are so bland and so 1-dimentional, the plot is as thin as you can imagine and clichés are so dumb every time you see them. I can't recall one time this story has been good and this movie certainly doesn't try to do it interestingly. Not the worst, but one to definitely skip. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

  1. Brother bear didn't make any sense to me because the main characters (who are bears) aren't even really brothers.
