My review of Beauty and the Beast

My review of Beauty and the Beast  

Beauty and the beast: This movie is centered on a prince and his servants being cured do to his actions, in order to break it he has to learn how to love someone and receive that love. He gets his chance when a woman name Belle shows up at his castle and stays with him. Getting Belle to fall in love with becomes difficult when because of how his looks and something comes between them. So, the Beast have to decide to either break the cures or help Belle with her dilemma?

This is one of Disney’s overrated movies! I say that because Sherk did a better job at telling a love story ten years later. That’s the one of the issue I have with this movie is the romance between Belle and the beast is one sided. That's a shame because both characters do have one thing in common but the movie didn't explore that. I can’t agree with the movies message of looking pass someone's looks because looks do matter. For example if you're at a restaurant would you be comfortable with someone who looks like Freddy kurgur taking your order? (No offense to burn victims.) Why are the servants cured for the prince’s actions? This makes the person who cured the prince look like a bully when you think about it. To the people who say that this movie promotes bestiality it wasn’t, I don’t know what gave people that idea. If the love wasn't suppose to be romantic maybe people wouldn't feel like the movie is promoting bestiality. 

The Beast May be cruel, spoiled and angry he does have a heart. It just the no one stand up to him or correct him. What bugs me about him is that we don't know his name. 

Belle is a smart and outspoken women do to her love of books. This makes her an outcast because she not like the other women in her town as far as wanting to get married. It's not that she doesn't want that but she wants it on her terms. 

I feel sorry for Belle's father Maurice his an inventor who's have trouble making his inventions work. Because of this the town thinks he's crazy. 

Gaston is the alpha male of the town which makes him egotistical and persisted of Belle. I don't like that the movie labels him as the villain, despite doing some messed up things he's not the bad guy. 

LeFou is the opposite of Gaston who brown nose him. It's understandable why Gaston would hangout with him because he's stroking his ego and no one can challenge him. 

Lumiere (One of the beast servants.) is a kindhearted, ladies man and rebellious. 

Cogsworth (Another servant.) is the voice of reason of the servants. This creates tense between him and Lumiere. 

What I like about this movie is the song because they are use to express with people are thinking. The animation is outstanding! I appreciate that this movie address that we create our own demons. The movie can be funny. Overall, this is not a bad movie it just fell short from being as good as it could have been. 

Rating = Worth Seeing
