Classy Disney Presentation of a Classic Tale

Rating: 8/10 (16 March 2017)

In a fairy tale village there is a 'beauty' of a girl who is chased for marriage but to no avail by a nasty villain with his right hand 'man' in tow..
Whilst in a castle, a prince of sorts who failed to show compassion was turned into a 'beast' and made to live a life of misery unless true love can release him from his torment.
The girls' father plays a pivotal role in bringing the beauty and the beast together....but will the villain prevent a happy conclusion?
This movie has a lot of charm, being part musical, part pantomime, with enough action, dance, comedy, costume elegance and positive political correctness to make it successful.
The show stoppers are the magnificent special effect ensemble of personified "props" such as clock, tea cup, candelabra and wardrobe that provide the character and charisma needed in this film.
All in all this picture gives us a Disney infused high class fantasy, worthy of a merit able 7 and a half, rounded up, hence: 8/10.
