Beauty and the Beast Movie Reviews:
This is an almost
perfect version of this well known story but my problem is that we do not feel
the growing love of Belle for the beast too much. She's seeing in dreams who
was the beast before, so we understand she can fall in love for who he was, but
not too much for who he really is. If that makes sens. But all in all it's a
very well made movie for all the family. The tone is a bit dark for little kids
but always beautiful, as it's usually the case with Gans's movies. The use of
CGI is obvious on the creatures, but it's done with good taste, IMO. It's a
shame gans does not make more movies, I love his style. It's just that, after
all this time waiting for a new movie of him, I wanted a little more substance.
