Beauty and the Beast was one of the most awaited movies of the year from Disney. It has certainly not dissapointed the audience.
The movie is a good remake of the classic tale. The movie moves very fast and thus does not give you much time to think. Even though it is more than 2 hours long, the movie does not seem long. However the pace is what brings drawbacks for the movie. The movie is about romance, but the romance buildup has not been captured very well in the movie. Why the beauty falls for the beast has not been shown very well in the movie. Other than that the movie has been made beautifully with all its grandeur. The visuals are one of the high points of the movie and make the movie breathtaking.
Dan Stevens plays the character of the Beast very well and make you believe of the kind hearted beast. Emma Watson plays her part well, thought she still looks very young like a child. Overall the acting is good.
Bill Condon has done a good job at directing the movie and has made it fast paced. He has also been able to bring the magnificient palace and its residents to life which is a job well done.
The visual effects are spectacular and they take the movie to greater heights. The whole movie looks like a beautiful canvas which was the need for this story which is very well known.
Overall the movie is an enthralling watch . So go with your family and enjoy this experience.
Rating - 3 / 5
