Miscast of Belle

Rating: 2/10 (22 March 2017)

Overall the film was decent, a bit boring at times. The acting was OK, but it failed to ever "sweep you away" like the animated version did for years.
The most frustrating part was Belle, or Emma. I don't dislike her and I could care less about feminism. However, I do think a lead role that includes substantial signing should be able to.......SING!
The horrible use of auto-tune was cringe worthy and her English accent was very thick for someone that was born in Paris and grew up in France....
I though McGregor was great as Lumiere and hid his English accent well. Mrs. Potts and Cogsworth are supposed to be English, so that worked well.
