When you take on a classic like Beauty and the Beast for a live action movie which was also nominated for the Best Picture by the Academy you HAVE to make sure that the spirit of the original remains intact even if you can't make it as good. I know that one has to tweak a few little things to make it appropriate not just for the new generation but also as a live action movie though without making it look cheesy or over the top... which quite sadly was not the case with this one... it was directed by an Oscar winning director (who also directed a twilight movie which sucks) and a studio that has recently produced better than the original adaptation of the jungle book which I really love... so one wonders what must have gone wrong... that I think we will find out later but for now if I have to say something positive about this movie it would be its visual effects which were quite gorgeous if not entirely believable, the design of the CGI characters which were a reminiscence of the original ones, Belle played by Emma Watson though not as great as I wanted her to be, seems to have done her job. And even if the songs didn't flow as greatly with the story as it did before, you could still enjoy them. The choreography, set design and the costumes also stole the show along with the Humour because of its talented cast even if it seemed a little cheesy at places, it managed to make me laugh (especially Gaston) hence making it a better movie than it really was... I will give it a 7/10...

P.S.- You may enjoy it because of the nostalgia factor.

what a film!! every thing which an atheist or i should say a true believer wants to explain to a fool...is all their in the movie..but still there are some very small plot holes in the movie although the movie explains very much what they want. the real hero of the movie was Paresh Rawal, his acting was superb and add another gem stone in his career...while Mithun Mithun Chakraborty proves himself once again as a legendary actor he plays the character very well...and now Akshay Kumar prove himself that he can do these type of movies too...although his acting skill didn't match Paresh Rawal or Mithun Chakraborty...the script was well written. characters well played but there were very small small mistakes which did not take this movie to another height...i wish this movie to be seen by every other person on earth and tell them about what god wants us to do...(sorry for mistakes i made in this review)

i have just watched POA and it was really good..specially the CGI Ape and our hero Caesar look real although it didn't Match the quality of some some best CGI animation like Avatar...the Story was predictable for me at the middle i don't know about you guys...best part of the film was the journey of Caesar. Tom Felton-> after playing a villain in harry potter series this was the first non potter film he did well play a kind of villain in it too he did a good job with his role and played it well. Frida pinto-> Aha...Slum dog millionaire girl, i was waiting for her new movie to come. and she came up with a bang. James franko-> i think i haven't watched his any film but he played his character well.

Story line -> It was Amazing at the begning no idea what will happen next except what the trailer has shown us. then in the middle it give away a kind of spoiler thingy... although i like this movie very much. I want to give this movie a 7.3/10

I was 11 or 12 when i first watch this movie on TV. And i was like WOW. i have already watched the Ramayana series by Ramanand Sagar which is an epic, but it had told the story in a number of episodes... while here we got the main story of prince Rama in 170 minute, although it didn't cover the whole epic but it still amazes me. The voice over actors did their best especially Amrish Puri, he had done some very memorable villainous roles in some of the best Hindi movies and i think this is one of them. While Arun Govil has played Rama in Ramamnand Sagar's Ramayana that's why his voice seems very suitable for the role to me and many who has seen the TV series.

And now lets talk about the animation...its marvelous if we compare it with the time it was produced in especially in India. where there is no animation movie been release before. This movie has give me some best memories of my childhood and that is why i still remember it. I am 19 years old by the way.
