Beauty and the Beast Review

By Charlotte C.

On March 17, 2017, Disney released a live action version of Beauty and the Beast. The "tale as old as time" stars Emma Watson as Belle, Dan Stevens as The Beast, Luke Evans as Gaston, and Josh Gad as Lefou. The movie centers around a young women named Belle who lives in a small French village. Her father, an artist (even though he is an inventor in the original), gets lost on his way to the market and ends up at a mysterious castle with magical objects. He tries to take a rose from the castle's garden, but he ends up as a prisoner to the terrifying beast that lives there. Belle finds her father and takes his place, staying in the castle with the beast. Overtime, they develop a friendship, and–eventually–they fall in love.

I love this new version. I love the old one as well, but the new version adds more background to the story. I also love the new songs they added, such as "Evermore" and "Days in the Sun" that give more insight into the characters' emotions. I also enjoy the character changes that they made. Overall, I loved this and I enjoyed it very much  4.5/5 stars.
