Enjoyable

Rating: 7/10 (1 August 2019)

First thing to say, the movie is a feast for the eyes. I am talking about the colors, film sets and costumes. The CGI are also great. The beast is well-designed and the living objects look photorealistic.
The story remains quite simple and manichean (but what do you expect from a fairy tale ?). More or less, it's about the battle of knowledge against ignorance and open-mindedness against discrimination.
Emma Watson is ok. Apart from the beast, the other characters are quite caricatured therefore not very appealing.
The end of the movie is among the best moments because it surprises us with the cast.
I won't compare this movie to the other versions because I have not seen them but overall, it was rather enjoyable.
