Not the best but better than most

Rating: 3/10 (9 August 2018)

Remakes of original films always make me cringe - you can never beat an original, even if it is a bad one.
I'm not fully against this remake but I feel with Disney and their budget they could have done and made it a lot better.
My main gripe were the accents - fairly dodgey especially in the songs. Some can pull it off but Ewan Mcgregor isn't remotely French in this film, Emma Watsons singing has been extremely enhanced and takes away from her natural voice.
As a story, it's tried and tested through the original - even if there is a plot flaw (not saying there is one) it is a Disney classic and the charm of that is there overpowering the flaws.
Could have done better though Disney...
