On Saturday of this weekend, I saw the new movie Beauty and the Beast. Originally I was going to see it with Sara, Mary Francis, and Christine. Unfortunately, though, one of Christine's family members is ill so she couldn't make it. Sara, Mary Francis, and I still went though and the movie exceeded all of my expectations. Emma Watson is beautiful and a wonderful actress and though I've always seen her as Hermione, she crushed the role of Belle.
The music in the movie was so good and I loved that there was a sort of modern spin on the original songs. Even in just the first song, they focused on what book she was reading and that came up later when the Beast made a joke about her loving Romeo and Juliet. Even though the Beast was animated, or heavily costumed (I'm not sure which?), I still felt like they had really good chemistry. I love that Emma Watson is such a strong female actress and that she took the role of Belle and made it new and classic all at the same time. She was a force to be reckoned with and I highly recommend the movie to anyone, of all ages.
This sounds like a really good movie to see. I will have to see it.
ReplyDeleteI want to see this movie so bad! I like how you mentioned the music and how the songs were modernized.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see this movie in the near future. I'm glad you liked it. I also love how you said that you've always seen Emma Watson in a certain role and this movie changed your point of view.
ReplyDeleteI agree that Emma Watson made it her own. I am glad she did because she made the story more realistic.
