It's pretty amazing. I have seen zero people hyped for this, but they somehow keep doing it.

I ended up going because I showed up too early on a Friday night and needed to wait for people to show up (that they never did is another matter), and this was the only movie playing that i wouldn't have had to wait half an hour for.
Not bad. "Shot for shot" does more or less describe it, and the pure-CGI of the "Be Our Guest" number often begged the question of why we weren't just seeing an animated movie.
Attempts to make the villagers more sympathetic just ended up making them come off as extremely gullible instead of just superstitious and misogynistic.

Uhh. There's been quite a bit of hype for this.

As a middle/high school teacher I have seen the hype.
Lol. Maybe it says something about how many people you know?

I really wish they would get the actress that played Mulan on Once Upon a Time for that role.
Really ? Because from where I've been sitting the last few weeks this film is like Star Wars for girls.
Why would they release Power Rangers a week after BatB? I know the demographics are different but still. At least GitS won't catch the (presumably) huge second weekend for BatB.

A Korean playing a Chinese hero, idk how well that would go over
Since Mulan won't be a musical it would be a waste. Unless she is trained in martial arts.

The last act of this movie is fucking gangbusters. Everything from when the villagers leave to storm the castle on is firing on all cylinders. And that's coming from someone who thinks a bunch of the rest of the movie is super rocky
I honestly think that if you have any affinity for the material it's worth going just for that last forty minutes. Emotionally, visually, dramatically it all works, even making up ground for weaker early bits

Well deserved. I didn't think it needed a live action remake but it was all extremely well done.
Keeping hitting the fucking home runs, Disney!

You know what's going to actually piss those people off lolol
Interracial relationships. There's a lot of black people in this movie and they kiss a lot of white people

You are getting Emma Stone instead

It hit the emotional tones quiet well. I do agree that the first half of the movie didn't have a great flow however once you reach the aftermath of the wolf attack I think the movie finds its rythm and it's rock solid from there on. Deserves all the monies really.

Well I loved it so glad it's smashing it.
Gastons song was always the highlight of the original for me and I can't get the new one out of my head, fantasic take on it

That's basically what it was. I had to take my kids today. Emma can't sing or act. It felt too long too.
