Review of Beauty and the Beast (2017) by Marriedthecritc — 02 Apr 2017
Disney had a challenge bringing the animated classic "Beauty and the Beast" into the 21st century. Overall they did a fantastic job bringing the story and music to life. The music in contrast to the 1991 classic is fuller in sound and has a stronger impact.
The clear use of auto tune while not too everyone's taste does not take away from the experience. The cast choices are spot on. Emma Watson had a insurmountable task of capturing belle and she does bring all the required emotions to the role.
Other notable cast such as Emma Thompson had a great spin on the Angela Lansbury classic that was Mrs. Potts. Ultimately all Disney had to do was take the emotional journey that was the original; amplify it, and modernize it.
They achieved that as apparent by the drones of people who are seeings and enjoying this film.
