Review of Beauty and the Beast (2017) by Oz G — 05 Dec 2017
The movie in general is enjoyable; however, there are a few things that feel very forced. The cinematography and the music is breathtaking. The way the show the story of Belle and why she is who she is, is very well done.
On the other hand, The conflict on Lefou, feels extremely force. If the director wanted Lefou to be a gay is fine, but in he was a villain, and a mean one. It was like "uh oh he is gay he cannot be a villain".
The movie feels like it had to be politically correct regardless of the setting. I'm brown and I got bother by how much it seem like they had to have diversity instead of being truth to the setting.1700's France was not very diverse.
The directors/producers/film makers need to realized that it is not about racial diversity but a good story. It is great to have diversity but put it on the right setting. I'd love to see a movie about other cultures and races, just make sure the story is a good one.
