Review of the film "Beauty and the Beast" - A remake of the 91st year cartoon


First, I'll talk about dubbing. Since this is a musical film, they sing all the time, and I understand that such dubbing is hard and painstaking work, but if you can't, then it's better to leave it in the original language and just apply subtitles. Unfortunately, this is not an option, as the target audience of the film does not yet know how to read...

What's the point of remakes anyway? Films that are morally or technically outdated require reworking, or if a new director wants to rethink the original story. Here is a simple copy of the cartoon - the same lines, the same scenes. However, the film's running time has increased by a whole hour!

In fact, it's really an extra hour, the only addition to the plot is an explanation of where Belle's mom is. And she died of the plague. By the way, it didn't change anything at all. But to tell this to the audience, it was necessary to add teleportation to the film.

Thus, we are simply forced to watch the candle holder with the clock sing and dance for longer. We've been dreaming about this for 26 years!

The film also decided to make Gaston narcissistic. For example, he ties Belle's father in the woods to be devoured by wolves.

The only really good thing about the film is that with the death of the Monster, all the enchanted objects turn into ordinary things...

A few words about the technical side of the film. If the candlesticks, kettles and furniture seem to be fine, then everything is bad with the Monster. And if at the beginning, when he was growling menacingly and rushing in all directions, everything would have been fine. It's really hard to look at the face of a sweet and kind one (like you're playing the new Mass Effect).

In general, Belle's love for the guys with the library was added to the Stockholm syndrome from the cartoon. Smart is sexy.

In general, a change in Belle's positioning can be noted with modern trends. Now she is not just a romantic dreamer who is waiting for her prince, but a well-read, intelligent and emancipated girl who strives to achieve something in life. In order to somehow interest her, the Monster now knows how to read. But I forgot how to use a spoon...

My verdict is to watch Emma Watson's photos and the cartoon separately. And the movie is worth skipping... I still don't understand why it was taken down.













The Miracle on the Hudson

Sally is a movie about a man who was able to do what was needed in a crisis situation.

The story of the Hudson River floods itself passed me by, but before watching the movie, I read Wikipedia and several articles about this event.

This is not an action movie, not a disaster movie, but it is a rare movie that everyone should go to, because the message of the picture is that there is so little good news nowadays, especially about airplanes. The journalistic texts lack human emotions, we cannot see the doubts of the Captain of the Airbus A320 aircraft, which Tom Hanks perfectly conveyed. The film gives us the opportunity to really worry about the passengers of the plane and its crew. Clint Eastwood, who occupied the director's chair, presented this story perfectly, the more he enlisted the support of the participants of the event themselves. Among the screenwriters of the movie is Chesley "Sally" Sullenberg himself, and this is a plus of the picture. Jouez sur 1xbet Francais et profitez du casino.
