Team Belle?
The Characters
In Cinderella, the tajuk character's role was expanded unlike her animated counterpart. Her character development has significantly improve and I'm very happy about it, because we get to lebih about Cinderella and how she got her trademark name. Which is taken from the original fairy-tale!
Whereas in Beauty and the Beast, they actually copycat the animated feature, Belle's and the Beast's characters are almost identical to their animated counterparts. I was not particularly very happy with the Beast at all, because he's not very hotheaded and ferocious enough, especially during the West Wing scene!
Honestly speaking, I have no komen-komen on both Gaston, Lady Tremaine. But Anastasia and Drizella were also for comic relief, to which I truly appreciate it! Finally, the Enchanted objects are not so self-centred as their animated counterpart. To which the latter's true nature were shown in Humans Again, a song to which I grew to dislike!
The Songs
As mentioned, Cinderella isn't a copycat of the 1950 animated feature because it's not a musical, Disney was breaking traditions from this film. They didn't want to be the stereotypical musical film that we all grew up with, so good job Kenneth!
In Beauty and the Beast, it IS definitely a copycat of the animated feature. I wasn't particularly fond of Emma's Singing at all, which they had Emmy Rossum as Belle instead despite the fact that I'm a peminat of both actresses! But on the other hand, I fell in Cinta the 3 new songs written specially for the 2017 reboot.
Character Interactions
I wasn't very fond of Belle and the Beast's interactions at all, I felt that it was force and lacks emotions. Especially during the dancing scene of tajuk song, it lacks the magic and Cinta surrounding the 2 characters.
In Cinderella, We get to see Prince Kit and Ella interacting with one another during the Ball scene, Kenneth Branagh the magic quality in this particular scene. They also got to meet each other before the Ball and it was there, that their friendship blossom into love.
Who Do anda Choose?
So, do anda agree with my opinions on both films? I hope that I don't mean any hard feelings to those who Cinta the Beauty and the Beast reboot.
Team Ella?!??!
