Good live action remake

Rating: 8/10 (28 November 2018)

Disney is making a lot of live action remakes now, and this is the one I have been wishing for after Cinderella.
I'll start with the pros. Of course, the CGIs and the costumes and lavish production designs are fantastic. Dan Stevens is great as the Beast, and so is Luke Evans as the arrogant Gaston.
My main concern in this movie is actually some of the singing. I was distracted by the autotune, most especially from Belle's songs. I love Emma Watson, but I personally think she is miscast and there were other actresses better fit to play the role.
This remake is also not as charming or magical as the original. Still good, but didn't up my expectations.
To sum it up, the animation still is better.
