And my now it’s time for my personal favorite Disney Movie, at least as of right this moment in time or should it a tale as old as time…..maybe that doesn’t make much sense
Beauty and the Beast was a movie I didn’t appreciate as kid. Sure I enjoyed it but was it my favorite, Nope but on this rewatch it just hit everything I wanted in a Disney movie. The plot is simple yet it resonates emotionally, the character are all fun and engaging, the animation is beautiful and the songs are high-quality. Much like The Lion King, I think the songs are of the highest quality with none being lesser than the other songs.
Beauty and the Beast demonstrates superb balance between elegance and comedy. Sure one could nitpick in a bit to feel superior to a captivating family movie. Though to be fair there is a fair amount of little nitpicks, like the Timeframe or aspects of the curse but it doesn’t diminish this movie as they do not bother me personally. Beauty and the Beast has everything that makes for a great Disney animated movie and my personal favorite.
