this is the best film of 2008 hands down and will be one of the best in years to come. brilliantly directed. impeccably acted by the whole casts. wonderfully shot. detailed to perfection art/production design,costume and make-up.with visual effects that will put to shame most films.amazing musical score that enhances the mood of the film.all you want in a movie is here - fun, excitement, sadness, happiness and most of all love. things that we experience in our lives. a once in a lifetime epic/fantasy film that every film lover will watch in awe and cherished.truly deserving of all the accolades it received from critics and film awards.highly recommended and a must have film collection.

this movie was adapted from the book of the same title inspired from the classic beauty and the beast. however, like the book this is a modern take of that old tale and the point of view of the story is that of the beast, hence the title. and of course we should not expect 100% similarities from book to movie which happens most of the time.finally this film is for targeted audience which are the teens so don't be too critical otherwise you will not enjoy the ride watching this awesome movie which for me is recommended not only for its target audience but adults alike.it is fun to watch, simple, straightforward and most of all heartwarming.and what i also love is the musical score and the songs used in this movie.
