Set in the Pacific Northwest, before the white man "discovered" America, this movie is based

on a Native American tribe. The chief gets killed by a mother grizzly bear who is protecting her
cubs. The chief's oldest son (18 years old) becomes the new chief, while the chief's youngest
son (15 years old) plots revenge on the bear that slayed his father. n the process the youngest
son turns into a bear, and is befriended by two comical moose, and is followed by an adorable
(and annoying) little bear cub. With these friends he learns valuable lessons. After a time, the
new chief finally decides to get rid of the bear and not just that bear, but all the bears of the
area (including his brother). t gets to be a problem, because the new chief does not know that
his brother is a bear. So the brother who is a bear has to figure out how he can prevent this
bear slautering from happening. Emily
Long ago, as the Earth was emerging from the ce Age, there were three brothers. After a bear takes
the life of the oldest brother, impulsive youngest brother Kenai kills the bear in revenge, only to be
transformed into a bear himself. Denahi, the middle brother, comes upon this bear and, thinking it
killed Kenai, vows revenge. Now brother hunts brother and Kenai's only hope for survival is to
befriend his own worst enemy, a grizzly cub named Koda. Koda main goal is to show Kenai the real
meaning of brotherhood. Written byAnonymous
n the Disney-animated adventure Brother Bear, Joaquin Phoenix provides the voice of Kenai, a young
Native American boy whose brother, Sitka (voice of D.B. Sweeney), is killed by a mother bear protecting
her cubs. With revenge in mind, Kenai sets out into the woods only to find himself magically transformed
into a bear himself. Seeing the world through the eyes of his prey, Kenai is forced to learn a lesson about
nature and life. On a comic footnote: Brother Bear also features the voices of Rick Moranis andDave
Thomas as Rutt and Tuke, moose characters reminiscent of their beer-guzzling McKenzie brothers from
SCTV and Strange Brew; because this is a family-oriented cartoon - and it would be inappropriate for the
moose to quaff beer -- the two moose express a fondness for eating wheat hops instead. ~ Matthew Tobey,
