Beauty and the Beast
Forced to face the cruel side of life, a devastated, bankrupt merchant chances upon the enchanted castle of a hideous creature, the mere sight of it chills the bone to the marrow. There, a fate worse than death awaits the poor father-of-six, who, after plucking a sweet-scented rose from the repulsive master's verdant garden, must do the impossible: permit his compassionate daughter, Belle, to take his place and pay for the sins of her parent. Now, an impenetrable mystery shrouds the haunted mansion, and, as repugnance gradually turns into affection, only true love could break the spell.

Excellent but underrated film
Absolutely Fantastic
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
This film kicks the arse of anything Disney ever cleaned up, sanitized, recycled, re-churned and has fed us for years including the most recent fluff starring Emma Watson. They had us believing for years that Belle just up and went to that castle and fell in love with the Beast, yeah right! The fairy-tale belongs to the French people and they sure told their story right in this movie. I want this one in my collection. Oh! And the soundtrack's awesome too. A+
When looking at movies I happened upon this one out of curiosity, and I am all the better for it. First, clear your mind of the Disney releases and story lines behind them. On many layers this masterful work will enchant you, from beginning to end. Disney should be put on notice, because the makers of this film made Disney look like amateurs. The sets, and costuming epitomize the true essence of what movie magic is all about, and will not disappoint you. Even the ending was wonderfully magical. The film score is awesome. Vincent Cassel, Léa Seydoux, André Dussollier all should be recognized for their fantastic talents. The makers of this film have something to be truly proud of. This is a lavishly and visually stunning film, completely delightful, and worth watching a few more times to see what you may miss. The details are exquisite to behold. I can with certainty recommend this film to anyone, knowing they will agree.
An unexpected romance blooms after the the youngest daughter of a merchant who has fallen on hard times offers herself to the mysterious beast to which her father has become indebted. Beauty and the Beast is a movie that suffers from boring characters and a story that has been told 1.000.000 times by now and it's getting confusing, boring and bad and this version proves it this is not Disney or that 80's show with Ron Perlman and Linda Hamilton instead we have untalented Vincent Cassel as the Beast and Léa Seydoux as Belle who does a nice job after 15 or 20 minutes pass you will start skip scenes for the film to reach it's finale. Plus the cgi was awful this film gets a non recommend without a doubt.
The classic fairy tale of a beautiful girl who has to live with the beast in order to protect her family. Now, the story follows almost the well known one, which is more than fine, as most of the Beauty and the Beast nowadays tend to alter the story too much. The landscapes were beautiful, the castle, the tower, the forest, even Belle's country house. And the costumes were nice, some of Belle's garments though were a little too much. Now, the story started okay, with a nice pace, but started rushing towards the end. When did Belle fell in love with the beast? I must have missed that part between watching her having dreams about the past and running away from him after taking a pick of him gorging over a deer. The special effects were a little childish and certainly unrealistic, but the final battle was okay. For me, the prince\beast should have been played by a younger man, but other than that the performances were nice and not too much over the top. So 3 out of 10.
