How The New 'Beauty And The Beast' Destroys Itself In The First 5 Minutes
As a longtime fan of Disney's Beauty and the Beast (the original came out when I was 3), I was cautiously optimistic about this 2017 remake. Even though I knew the film was likely to have the flaws that most big-budget Hollywood films do, I was still unprepared for just how disappointed I would be. I went home and watched the original right away in an attempt to figure out why the new film left me feeling so flat and uninspired. Seeing the contrast between the two films made the reasons for my reaction immediately clear. I didn't even have to look past the prologue to see how the new movie fails to measure up.
