Review of Beauty and the Beast (2017) by Bily T — 01 Jan 2018

Beauty and the Beast (2017) was a pretty good movie, this is another one of Disney's live action remakes of their animated movies, other movies that have done this are the Jungle Book, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty but through the eyes of the character Maleficent, even upcoming ones like Aladdin, the Lion King and Mulan.

This movie is considered to the most decisive movie out of all the live action remakes Disney has done so far, I wasn't sure what I was going to think when I watched this movie and how I would compare it to the 1991 animated movie, now that I've seen it, I can say I still think the animated version is better seeing as it is a classic Disney movie, but this movie is still good on it's own but there could've been somethings to make it a bit better.

This movie has a good story, good set of character (being the same characters from the original movie), the cast is pretty good too, the casts singing is pretty great too apart from Emma Watson, her singing isn't terrible but I've heard way better singing than what she's done. The CGI is really well done, having a realistic feel but also staying true to the source material. The music is very well done, the songs they true to the ones that were in the 1991 movie, and even some funny jokes as well.

My main problems are Emma Watson's singing as she's audio tuned throughout her whole time singing, plus some of the voices sound a little off for some of the characters, and I wish some scenes weren't changed like they gave Gaston a gun instead of a knife or sword or whatever, plus some scenes aren't as special as they were in the 1991 animated version, all of these things the animated movie did better at, this isn't a bad movie, as I said earlier it is a pretty good movie. Would I watch it again? Probably if I got bored one day and if there wasn't anything else on and I couldn't be bothered to watch something else.

If you want to check it out, I'd say at least one viewing will be good enough.

I give Beauty and the Beast (2017) a 7 out of 10 a pretty good movie, but it could've been better.
