The reviews are flowing in for Cars 2, and it’s pretty hit and miss for Pixar’s latest sequel. Personally I’m a big fan – it’s a change of style and direction from other Pixar movies but a welcome one, and they’re good fun. Fans of the more traditional Pixar with buckets of heart & soul will probably be more interested in next year’s offering, Brave. There’ll be a teaser attached to Cars, but for now we get a look at main character Merida, a princess in the Scottish Highlands.
Brave is billed as Pixar’s first fairy tale, and with a cast that includes Emma Thompson and Billy Connolly it certainly sounds like it could be another big hit for them – it comes out in the summer of 2012 (in the US – our release date isn’t set).
