Review: Beauty and the Beast 3D

Feb 10, 2012 15:50

I wanted to see this on the big screen before it was gone, so I went out to do so this morning. It's been so long since I sat down and watched it that I had forgotten how freakin' AMAZING this movie really is! The voices, the pacing, the visuals, the songs....everything goes together perfectly. I'm somewhat immune to crying at the "death scene" ( Read more... )

I don't do 3d movies often I've only seen B&TB, Lion King and Alice in Wonderland but in the end I think 3d is overused and stupid because it doesn't add that much into the movie.

But honestly during the prologue of B&TB, right when it starts when we see the castle into distance and the piano starts up, I started crying. It was so beautiful.

Tangled Ever After was hilarious and cute. It was so well done

I only went to the 3D version of BatB because it was the only version they had at my theaters. What I found neat is that the 3D helps brings more attention to the background details, some of the works on the flowers and such is a amazing. The only real problem I found is that it also brought attention tot he animation errors too, still I loved the movie as much as I did when I was a kid.

3D can be really cool to see when done well, but it's not something I need to see every single movie in.

I was mad when I found out that it would only be 3D. But I also noticed a lot of little things that I never noticed in the movie before. It was fun to watch the background characters and catch all the behaviors and facial expressions that I couldn't see when I saw this in a regular theatre or on video.

BTW, a few years ago, I met one of the writers of this movie. He said that the original idea was for the movie to end with Belle asking the Prince to grow a beard; but they changed it at the last minute. I kinda wish that they had kept that line in. XD

Heck, I saw the dedication to Howard Ashman forever ago, and I teared up then without knowing who he was. "Giving a mermaid her voice, and a beast his soul" is pretty deep for being so short, and I can't help but imagine he knew how much the staff working with him before he died appreciated the work he did. It is sad that he didn't get to finish working on the movie he and Alan Menken wanted to make when they initially signed on to work for Disney (that movie being Aladdin), which is a shame because it's one of my favorites ( ... )
