Katy Perry A part of Me
As docudramas go this one feels more real to the audience than some recent ones. This is produced by the same directors who did Justin Beiber's recent movie Never Say Never. While both of these pop icons have the same theme running throughout their movies, ( believe in your dreams and work hard) I believe the Cotton Candy Queen Perry has shown a more realistic backdrop to the craziness that is a celebrity life. Born into a family of Pentecostal preachers, Katy shows some of the transformation she made to go from protected gospel girl to coming out loud pop queen. The thing that makes this one more sincere and personal is we see the love story between her and her then husband , Russel Brand, and we experience her heartache as she learns her marriage is breaking up while on her tour. We experience her pain too as she goes from soaring heights to the deepest depths of agony and she, like her theme, will come out on top.
Go see it.

Brave
The Disney Pixar movie Brave has some of the best animation yet! The scenery is amazing and the detail involved in animating Merida's unruly red curls will amaze you. It is a new concept for the animators to project Merida as being an independant and feisty princess living life on her own terms. There is an interesting storyline involving Merida's stubborn decision to make her own choices and what her Queenly mother expects of her. While the animation is outstanding, I found the story a surprising and unexpected tale of a selfish princess, not so much an independant one, who rights her wrong in the end. I give it a B-.
