The movie is well edited so the dialogue and movements seem more natural in most places. It has a few grim scenes but nothing too bad. I really like this movie a lot and the symbolism is conveyed nicely. Whether you're simply a little misanthropic or a history buff you'll probably like this movie quite a bit. The characters were very easy to relate to, at least in my opinion. The few songs in the movie are presented in a tasteful manner. This movie shouldn't be classified as a musical however. I think this movie would be great to show to kids in high school or maybe even middle school as it could be a good educational resource.

This movie was probably one of the worst I've ever seen. I kept watching out of sheer morbid curiosity. The plots were bad. The animation was bad. The songs were bad. There were some places that the animation was so bad that I literally laughed out loud. It's boring as snot otherwise. If you had any respect for any of the characters before it goes out the window completely with this movie. The beast is a GIANT violent control freak and Belle always blames herself for stuff that's not her fault. The only reason anyone would ever want to watch this more than once besides masochism would be if they wanted to remember their parents domestic abuse toward each other as some kind of dismal nostalgia.

I'm normally not a fan of Johnny Depp. I hated his performance as Willy Wonka and as Jack Sparrow but this role was well played. I was hesitant to watch this movie at all but I'm glad I finally did. I had gotten recommendations of this film from people when I told them I liked Repo! The Genetic Opera because it's a similar genre mix. It's mostly a musical drama with elements of "horror". It's definitely not a blood and guts film meant to scare anyone unless you're unaware of how bad human society is. I feel there's a lot of honesty in this film philosophically. The only thing that's not perfect about this film is how the music doesn't match up with the vocals in some of the songs. It's kind of strange but if you can get past that you'll surely enjoy it.
