Compared with Disney's original animated film, which is a subversive innovation of the fairy tale "Beauty and the Beast", the new version of the live-action remake has almost nothing to surprise people again in terms of content. Turning the old animation into a more gorgeous live-action movie, but the embedding of a same-sex theme actually does nothing to make the story truly new.

From the perspective of the effect, its adaptation of the old classics did not disappoint. The irresistible production has given the most beautiful form in light and shadow to the classics that could only be stopped in the old 2D animation. Whether it is the gorgeous castle costume or the grand and dreamy singing and dancing, it is enough to make people indulge in this romantic fairy tale, and they will not feel the abruptness of those singing passages, and they are not sure when they should be created. What kind of Hollywood humor, Disney has long been familiar with it, and many anthropomorphic objects are still the most hilarious highlights of this movie.

If the film has a perfect score in terms of visual perception, then its innovation in the story can only be considered unsatisfactory. This live-action adaptation is the same as "Cinderella" in terms of the plot and is loyal to the original. mantle, but the difference is that "Cinderella" only makes a stepmother's image more tense, which makes the whole story more full and full, while "Beauty and the Beast" introduces a same-sex character, although this is the first time in the history of Disney movies. A gay character, but the appearance of this character in the movie did not actually play a refreshing role, but just added a supporting role for a gag.

It is precisely because of this kind of theme embedding that does not actually match the main body of the movie itself, and the story of the movie really makes people unable to find such novel highlights, so as far as adaptation is concerned, the new version of "Beauty and the Beast" is just There is nothing wrong with it, but fortunately, "Beauty and the Beast" still has a charm derived from this beautiful fairy tale itself. When we take off the golden clothes of the movie, there is a love that does not judge people by their appearance, and one is poured by love. The growing heart is still the inner beauty of this movie, which is more precious than Jin Yu. This truth and kindness is still moving.

The classic reappearance of "Beauty and the Beast" actually happens to be filled with old wine than the new bottle. There is nothing bad about this approach in this movie. The new bottle creates a more dreamy and realistic fairy tale world. The old wine still has a long-lasting mellow aroma.
