Reviews for Brother Bear
Compared to the Disney classics, this is a lazy and forgettable misfire.

Top CriticModest but guileless.

Top CriticA sweet family film about love and tolerance.

It also seems to want to have a message, but it’s a little tougher to spot than the usual "Be true to yourself" or "Face up to your destiny.”
10/18/08
Brother Bear is a very mild animated entry from Disney with a distinctly recycled feel.
06/06/08
Top CriticAnother watchable, old-fashioned, uninspired Disney animation.
06/24/06
Top CriticPredictable? Yes. Corny? Sure. But Brother Bear is still good, family fun.
12/06/05
A lame duck of a movie.

Top Critic'Es una de esas joyitas que no pueden faltar en ninguna colección personal y cuyo valor seguramente será reconocido en los años por venir.'
07/20/04
The movie isn’t as witty as Monsters, Inc. and the storytelling isn’t as sharp as in Tarzan, but the theme of environmental kindness is priceless.
06/03/04
Enchanting.

I still don't understand how Brother Bear got an Oscar nomination for Best Animated film, but there are plenty of worse movies out there.
04/02/04
It's another must-have for Disney fans.

...for all its earnestness, its wholesomeness, and its uplifting moral values, Brother Bear is formula Disney.
03/16/04
"A rich, deeply felt story about self-actualization and love, as well as about learning to respect nature on its own terms. It’s the new Bambi.
01/29/04
Skirts self-parody in its rigid adherence to the cartoon-epic template.
01/15/04
Brother Bear probably won’t crossover to adult moviegoers without kids [but] it’s an intelligent and entertaining addition to the Disney catalog.
