Beauty and the Beast (2017)









Director: Bill Condon

Synopsis: The fantastic journey of Belle, a bright, beautiful and independent young woman who is taken prisoner by a beast in his castle. Despite her fears, she befriends the castle's enchanted staff and learns to look beyond the Beast's hideous exterior and realize the kind heart and soul of the true Prince within.


Review: 


Let’s start by saying Disney holds a special place in my heart I love everything about it and when I saw this advertised I could not have been more excited to go and watch it, so it defiantly had high standards to live up to!

So I went on a Saturday to the afternoon (Second) showing of the movie and it was sold out, thank goodness we booked tickets in advance, otherwise we would have had a couple very upset children (And me of course)!

The film was more than I had expected it to be, the work that had gone into the film you could defiantly see when watching the movie.
The only thing I have the is slightly negative is that it took a bit of time to get used to Lumiere, Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts and Chip, I know, I know, the whole movie got updated but for me it just took a little time to adjust as they were most defiantly changed a lot and me being me found it hard to see them un cartooned (If that makes sense to anyone).


I absolutely loved this film I think all the actors, the actress, and the director did and amazing job for bringing the movie to life. Everyone involved in the making of this movie really did do such a great job!

I think in this remake you do learn a lot more than you did is Disney’s original, which was nice, learning more about Belle’s mother I thought added that extra touch and I’m not going to say too much for the people that have not watched the movie.

I would certainly go and watch Beauty and the Beast again (If I had any friends to go with that is lol) But for now I’m just waiting until it comes out on DVD to be able to watch it whenever I want but in the mean time I will settle for my Beauty and the Beat book 😊

My rating is:       

(5 stars)



Thank you for reading.

I still remember - Review - Blog Tour.

I still remember by  Priya Prithviraj. Blog Tour. Title:  I Still Remember Genre : Contemporary Romance/ Coming-of-Age Age category : Young Adult Release date : May 14, 2017 How do you forget someone you’ve loved once? Ji-woo dreams of becoming a writer and is back in college giving it a second shot. But then Weon-gyu, her first love, comes back into her new life. Will she give up on her dreams or will she write them a happy ending? So… this book is a nice short read, something nice and easy to pick up. I read this on holiday and I wanted something that I could get stuck into but something that wasn’t going to take all my time up if I got stuck into it and to be honest this book did just that I actually finished it in 2 nights. For me personally, I would have liked a bit more background on the characters that are in the book so we could relate to them a bit more. I liked how to story is about a love you once had can turn up at any time

Grace after Henry by Eithne Shortall - Blog tour.

Grace after Henry by Eithne Shortall.   Grace sees her boyfriend Henry everywhere. In the supermarket, on the street, at the graveyard. Only Henry is dead. He died two months earlier, leaving a huge hole in Grace's life and in her heart. But then Henry turns up to fix the boiler one evening, and Grace can't decide if she's hallucinating or has suddenly developed psychic powers. Grace isn't going mad - the man in front of her is not Henry at all, but someone else who looks uncannily like him. The hole in Grace's heart grows ever larger. Grace becomes captivated by this stranger, Andy - to her, he is Henry, and yet he is not. Reminded of everything she once had, can Grace recreate that lost love with Andy, resurrecting Henry in the process, or does loving Andy mean letting go of Henry?                                                                                ✮   ✮   Before i get into it i'd let to just say quickly that as well as a Blog

The Binding Song by Elodie Harper - Blog tour.

The binding song by Elodie Harper. A chilling debut for fans of Mo Hayder and Sharon Bolton, THE BINDING SONG takes you on a trip to Halvergate Prison. If you're lucky, you'll get to leave... Dr Janet Palmer is the new lead psychologist at HMP Halvergate in a remote, bleak area of Norfolk. At first, she was excited by the promotion. Then she starts to see how many secrets are hiding behind the high walls. A string of inmates have committed suicide, leaving no reasons why, and her predecessor has disappeared - along with his notes. The staff are hostile, the threat of violence is ever-present, and there are rumors of an eyeless woman stalking the corridors, punishing the inmates for their sins. Janet is determined to find out what is really going on. But the longer she stays and the deeper she digs, the more uncertain she feels. Halvergate is haunted by something. But it may be a terror worse than ghosts...
