Beastly


Kyle Kingson(Alex Pettyfer) has it all looks, money, intelligence and everyone loves him, but his cruel and wicked ways he treats people is monstrous. Humiliating unattractive classmates and especially gothic dressing witch Kendra(Mary-Kate Olsen), he invites her to a party to humiliate her, she retaliates and cast a spell that transform Kyle into a monster something she believe him to be inside. Kendra tells him, he has one year to find true love or face a lifetime looking beastly. Repulsed by his own appearance, Kyle goes into hiding in his Brooklyn home with his sympathetic housekeeper Zola(Lisa Gay Hamilton) and Blind teacher Will(Neil Patrick Harris). Now the only person who has accepted him is Lindy(Vanessa Hudgens) but can she love him as a men.

Beastly is the 21st century version of Beauty and the Beast, where a teenager is transformed from a handsome man to a ugly monster. Well cast and oftenly funny. This fairy tale was beautifully updated and reliable to everyone that beauty is only skin deep and we must look beyond our superficial appearances.

I give this movie 4 Stars.
