The character that I think was an important example to young viewers is Marshall because he is thoughtful, brave, smart and cunning.

In my opinion, I believe Marshall is a thoughtful person. Here are some examples, he took care of Leona the owl when she had a damaged wing and couldn't fly properly.

As soon as the bears were awoken Marshall started singing and that put the bears back to sleep.My last example is when Marshall found a narrow tunnel in the bear cave that is how escaped and he also managed to grab the camera that Marty Jr had

    Right from the beginning of the film, Marty is depicted as an oppressive character that exerts his leadership over the group whilst travelling down the river. Pictured as a rebelistic type of character, Marty is clearly the leader of his group of friends made up by Rocky and Clyde but it is also prominent that he is somewhat of a bully towards his peers. Marty also shows a recklessness and angry nature, shown when practising shooting his brothers gun. He fires numerous times in a seemingly enraged manner. Overall these reasons are key when the group make the decision to bury the body of George as they are bullied into the decision by Marty. These reasons made me dislike Marty as he appears to bully others around him through his oppressive nature and villainous attitude.…
