Beauty

This is a great film! Great acting. Well done.This is a must see. It communicates the important value of not only seeing the best in others, but believing in your self in spite of what society or the media tells us. It also speaks to the fact that all individuals deserve respect (especially me!) This is shown in the relationship between Alix and Mark. Mark is a great contrast to the unselfish Lee. Jamey S and Janine T are great in their roles.The facial expressions are marvelous.

A warm and touching movie. This is not really Beauty & The Beast revisited; the beast is not very ugly in this movie, but rather a freaky Jay Leno look-a-like. The Beauty is charming, but why does she have to have a boyfriend before she meets the beast, I wonder. But why wonder, when one can enjoy. The movie works and that's what counts.

It's a Lifetime movie of Beauty and the Beast. Predictable with several attempts to tug at your emotions. Love, death, and holding hands. The story tries to actualize that a well-painted portrait can capture the true essence of a person. However, the story also leads us in another direction. Can an artist capture the outward appearance of a man, put it on a canvas, and change the way that person actually sees himself? This made for TV story attempts to show that yes, it can, and no it doesn't. Of course, we have a hand-holding happy ending. Not-so-famous actors doing a credible job with the delivery of this subject. The hour and a half will go by quickly.

I stumbled on this movie one day when there was nothing else that interested me, WOW, it's a beautiful take on the Beauty and Beast story. I've never been a big fan of Janine Turner, but she played this one without going over the top. I AM a big fan of Jamey Sheridan, but he blew me away with this one, his eyes and his voice were so mesmerizing, especially that gentle voice. He wasn't just playing a part, he became the "beast", and surely convinced anyone who has seen it that beauty is indeed found on the inside. I've tried everything I can think of to find it, it's just the type of feel good movie to pop in when you're home alone and need a lift. If anyone out there knows where to find it, PLEASE let me know!!

I have never been a huge fan of Janine Turner. Most of her movies are palatable though. Jamie Sheridan makes this film. If you can watch a romance movie and believe the male actors in it then you have a great movie. In romance films we always believe the female because they are the emotional ones. Hal Holbrooke is his usual wonderful self and this movie is one that if you like romances you could watch more than once. The scenery is lovely and being a huge fan of age old Beauty and the Beast story. This is a pretty good one. Janine Turner turns in her usual sweet performance and I loved the name of his dog. Good job to all involved.
