fan's dream come true

Rating: 9/10 (19 March 2017)

Ever since i saw the first teaser,i was dying to see this childhood favourite animation movie come alive as a liveaction Hollywood adaptation.As any other DisneyFairytale fan,my expectations were way too high with this one.Although i was not very pleased with their casting (EmmaWatson and Luke evans specially),i had no shortage of desperation to finally witness the epic eternal love story produced in today's advanced filmmaking facilities. And i am happy to say that i didn't get disappointed this time.This movie has met all my expectations and exceeded in some aspects.3D effects are extremely aesthetic and quiet a feast to eyes.the CG work of particles,fur,cloth etc is of sheer brilliance (as i would expect with Disney,it was perfectly balanced and neither photorealistic nor cartoonish..) There is nothing to say about the story etc as we all know it since our childhoods.Disney didn't waste runtime on establishing the plot and only focused on its grand "portrayal".Which is a good thing (And exactly where Junglebook,Snowwhite n maleficient failed) There is this "Be our guest" sequence which is breathtaking beautiful. It just mesmerises for few seconds. Belle is dressed in a magical yellow gown and beast comes up so elegantly there. Cogsworth,lumiere and chip (living objects of the palace) are animated very cutely.I'd not compare their expressions with the 1991 2D masterpiece though,inner child in me loved them all! 3D effects and complimenting cinematography makes you go awestruck quiet regularly till the end. The only thing which could have been wayy better is the "music". It wasn't something unpleasant ,but this being a "musical",needed freshness and not too stretched singing solos and repetitive same old ensemble BGM we have heard countless times elsewhere. All in all,i am very happy with this movie and i can say that it will stay in my collection for years! This isn't the first time when Disney did a classic remake,this is indeed the first time when Disney made me fall in love again!
