Super K

As a massive animation fan, Kiara the Brave really is as execrable as the reviewers on IMDb and Amazon say. Don't look for redeeming merits, there are not an awful lot of movies, animated or otherwise, that are completely irredeemable but Kiara the Brave certainly is, managing to do the seemingly impossible and be even worse than Life's a Jungle: Africa's Most Wanted. First and foremost the title, not in a long time has there been a more misleading title for a movie, Super K would have been much more fitting because Super Kloud is the main character, Kiara is literally barely in it. That's the least of Kiara the Brave's problems though. The animation is some of the worst there's ever been for any style, ugly colours, blocky backgrounds, blocky character movements and traumatising character designs(especially the hideous one for Super Kloud, which contributed to my 10-year old friend's night terror after he watched it) that make those of Video Brinquedo's and Spark Plug Entertainment's outputs seem tame in comparison. The music is plodding, forgettable at best and often out of place, some of it and the sound effects were just bizarre(if not quite as bad as Life's a Jungle). The dialogue is enough to give you the urge to pull your ear-drums out, it was juvenile, intelligence-insulting(for kids and adults alike) and just sounded like it was made up on the spot. Not just the writing quality but the way it was delivered too. The story is a colossal bore and makes an even bigger mistake of being incoherent, my friend actually asked what was going on in the story and I couldn't tell him. Slow pacing has never been a problem and understanding what's going on in a movie rarely has, but both were a major problem in Kiara the Brave. The characters are not engaging in the slightest, the supposed title character has a dull as dishwater personality, the actual lead character is obnoxious and the villains are creepy even for villains. The voice acting sounded like nobody put any effort in or forgot their acting lessons providing that they had any in the first place. In conclusion, dreadful in every way imaginable, a must-avoid, and this is coming from a person who is a vast majority of the time very subjective apart from in special cases like this. 0/10 Bethany Cox

To say that the animation of "Kiara the Brave" is bad is a HUGE understatement. It's absolutely abysmal. In fact, if a student in an art college produced this, the school would probably dismiss them and disavow all knowledge of them! While it might have looked pretty good about 1990 (before "Toy Story"), for 2011 it looks like crap. Really bright, garish and poorly rendered crap! If the animation isn't bad enough, the story itself looks like something you'd come up with during an acid trip. None of it makes the least bit of sense and would be of interest only to the dumbest and least demanding children.

Now this brings me to the interesting part. Although the cover art APPEARS to be a rip-off of Pixar's new film, "Brave", the film actually has NOTHING to do with this...NOTHING! All in all, there is not one thing to recommend this film. It is bad, amateurish and painful to watch. I really wish I could give this one a zero!

Amazing animation, likeable characters, cool action sequences and highly detailed character designs. Also an epic story.

How did Phase 4 Films Think Kiara is the Main Character? Kloud IS!!! The Animation looks like a Shovelware Wii Game. There's a Vacuum Cleaner and a Computer that the Wizard Uses in the Medieval Kingdom, What time period does this Movie take place in? 2000, 2025, 1996? Action scenes look Bad. I remembered watching with my Brother in my Parents Room. Just stay away from this and Go watch the Simpsons Movie, That Movie is way better than this Movie.

I've always felt that "Plan 9 from Outer Space" was the hands down winner of the worst movie of all time contest, until I saw Kiara. Bad voice work, bad script, animation that would have been state of the art in 1939, and I couldn't make any kind of sense of the story. I've rated over 4,000 movies here at IMDb and all I could think while watching this trash was, "is there any way to give a movie a negative rating?" I know there isn't but if one could this would surely rate a negative 10.

I actually grabbed it on NetFlix thinking it was the Pixar movie "Brave" and really felt stupid for being duped by the title. Than a couple of days later our adult daughter came home with it from RedBox to watch with our granddaughter and I pointed out that it wasn't "That Brave" she was a bit sheepish, but I felt a bit better learning that it wasn't just me being taken in by the title and cover art.

Use your time more productively, do anything but watch this dross.
