Beauty & The Beast - But Not As You Know It
Honestly, the cover put me off reading this book for SO long that the third book was almost out by the time I picked it up. And for that, I'm grateful, because I was able to go straight from this into the second!

"Beauty and the Beast may be tenuous and delicate where Eyes Without a Face is overripe and pulpish, but these films are gorgeous, dark poems about fragility and horror. Both fables depend on sublime, almost ethereal, imagery to convey a sense of doom and loss: mad, fragile love clinging for dear life in a maelstrom of darkness. The clash of haunting and enchanting imagery has seldom been more powerful. Eyes Without a Face boasts an extraordinary soundtrack too!"

A Dismal Disappointment from Disney
This film has all the right ingredients to be a magnificent reimagining of a Disney Classic but unfortunately it never quite hits the mark.
The supporting cast bring a host of beloved characters to life with charm and whimsy but they aren’t enough to carry the shambolic leads who just do not embody Beauty and The Beast.
I had been so excited about this movie but unfortunately it was a fail. It isn’t able to quite capture the magical enchantment of the original animation instead we are left with a love story between two characters who seem far more engrossed with themselves than they do with each other.
This movie will not grow to be a tale as old as time because it will not stand the test of time but we still have the original and that will never disappoint.
