This is a complete disappointment.
So the fairy tale "Beauty and the Beast" is my favorite work and everything connected with it, too. The movie was expected. But after the end credits, I sobbed into the voice from such an insult.
Director Bill Condon did not bother to control the filming process at all, he did not control the emotions of the actors on the principle: "I was given a job and I did it." Actress frankly fake? Let be! Is the script openly lousy? Let be! Are special effects frankly unnatural? Let be!
Screenwriter Stephen Chbosky did a great job with household dramas, but the fairy tale is not his genre. It was he who succumbed to the main actress, when she impudently set the condition: together they change the script by pouring feminism there, or she quits. This ruined the story, and the rest of the colleagues did not stop such arbitrariness, because in the end he decided everything.
There shouldn't have been any problems with music, because this is all the same Alan Menken and his famous melody Beauty and the Beast prologue.But here, too, everything is stuck together without effort. Some new songs were added, and if the solo the Beast or the howl of the Wardrobe is appropriate, then the disgusting song about childhood is not.All the actors had to sing in their own voices. Dan, Luke and Josh showed great singing. The rest managed as best they could, but this Mrs. Potts did not repeat the chic singing of Angela Lansbury from the cartoon. Emma Watson sang disgustingly, it was immediately clear that she could not sing, and later it became known that the voice was treated with autotune, which did not help her at all.
There's nothing special to say about the actors: Lumiere, Cogswart, Plumett and others did not play, but were there because they should, it's easier: there are a lot of characters and a little game. But still. Emma Watson - Belle, this is the main catastrophe of the film, although the actress previously played perfectly, and after all such wonderful actresses as Amanda Seyfried and Kristen Stewart claimed for the role, but the first left because of pregnancy, and the second because of employment, of course, the chosen person not at all a beauty, but that is not the point.
Masculine, an untidy, disheveled girl in coarse shoes, with a tucked-up dress and defiant lipstick on her lips, marching around the city with an elephant's gait and singing about how provincial they are, although she are no different from them. Of course, they will consider her strange. And it is not surprising that neighbors do not want to communicate with her and her pompous father, a former inhabitant of the capital, she scoffs at those people whom she didn't even communicate.This malevolent family itself pushed people away..Emma did not show emotions; she is simply mediocre.
Dan Stevens - Prince Adam, The Beast, again Prince Adam. This actor is really brilliant, he can do anything. But here he was stunned by the image of a plush cat with horns, his lips look like a bow, a tail with a whisk, and fangs constantly disappear or appear when a capricious creature gets angry,he uttered stupid words in the script perfectly, a special suit did not give the actor liberation, there are no complaints about him.
Luke Evans - Gaston: the actor did an excellent job with his role.
Josh Gad - LeFou. It was this actor who saved the film from complete acting shame, in which even the amazing actors were not able to prove themselves, yes, according to the script, he also changed, but his character was not radically redrawn. A cheerful, active and funny person gave out 100% of the acting: award, applause, admiration, he deserved all this and he wasn't given it all, the main character is again not him, it's a pity.
Maurice - Kevin Kline, he automatically worked out his salary.
Everyone is ready to shout that the film repeats the cartoon to the smallest detail, but this is not so. There were added unnecessary scenes that were intended to close the plot holes, and instead demonstrated the stupidity of the heroes. All this is an empty stretch of timing.
Costumes. Most of them were inspired by the cartoon characters, but she looked disgracefully masquerade, not people dancing at the ball, but some Barbie dolls in cakes. When you watch this, you want the characters to announce a joke and change clothes.
Computer trash special effects - there is nothing to specify. Everything looks beautiful, wooden and false. Did the audience expect such furniture, wolves and the castle with enthusiasm: of course, the answer is no.
This movie is not worth a bit of attention of any person, even if someone does not know about the cartoon, he is unlikely to want to follow the strange empty dialogs, soulless special effects and wooden Emma Watson. For the faithful to the original people, this film is a terrible shock. Without exaggeration, he is capable of causing mental trauma. Indeed, in fact, everyone will simply be convinced that the craving for money can ruin everything.It's a shame that some call it - a masterpiece of Hollywood.
To be honest, I would give this movie 0 out of 10.
