Beauty and the Beast



Rating: PG, for some action, violence, peril, and frightening images.

The tale as old as time gets a high-tech, live-action retelling while staying mostly true to the beloved 1991 animated musical. Emma Watson and Dan Stevens star as the titular beauty and the beast. She’s a smart young woman who’s sick of being stuck in her provincial French town; he’s a surly, cursed prince who’s sick of being stuck in his massive castle. Could these two crazy kids possibly find love? Director Bill Condon’s film is visually dazzling, adding luxurious flair to all the big musical numbers you know and love (plus a few new ones that aren’t quite so great). Kids will delight in the household items coming to life and bursting into song – the clock, candelabra, teapot, and cup, for example. But there are also dangers to be found in the woods leading up to the beast’s castle. It’s dark and full of ravenous wolves, which might be scary for very little kids. Belle’s father (Kevin Kline) is in peril several times. The arrogant Gaston (Luke Evans) whips the villagers into a frenzy, leading them in a mob to kill the east. And of course, because this is a Disney movie, there are dead parents. But for the most part, your kids will probably love this, and they’ll leave the theater singing. Fine for kids around 6 and older.

The movie “300,” which was released in 2006, is one of the best epic movies of Hollywood. There are very few epic movies, whose sequels are going to be released in future and 300 is also one of them. The 2 nd  part of this movie franchise, 300: Rise of an Empire, was released in 2014 and collected huge profit at box-office. It didn’t collect more than the 1 st  part, but managed to collect large amount at box-office The reason for low collection of this movie might be because the main protagonist, remained alive in the end, while in the 1 st  part, the main protagonist died, or audience didn’t accept the death of Leonidas (Gerard Butler), King of Sparta, and wanted to see him again in the 2 nd  part. The 1 st  part of this movie was based on the comic series, 300, which is written by Frank Miller and Lynn Varley, whereas, the 2 nd  part of this franchise was based on another unreleased novel of Frank Miller, Xerxes. After 2 parts of this movie franchise, audience is waiting f

Stranger Things: M. Night Shyamalan Wants To Direct In Season 2

Well  here's  a plot twist we weren't expecting — though maybe we should have been:  M. Night Shyamalan  — whose new film,  Split , is getting some of his best reviews since  The Sixth Sense  — has expressed an interest in directing episodes of  Stranger Things ' second season. The reason we shouldn't be surprised is that the Duffer Brothers, creators and guiding force of the Netflix series, used to work  for  Shyamalan on the television series  Wayward Pines , which represented their first TV work. While promoting  Split , Shyamalan commented, "My boys who do  Stranger Things , they did  Wayward Pines  for me. They were round my house and I was, like, 'Well, you can hire me back, guys.'" No word on what the Duffers have to say in response. The series is expected to return later this year and will reportedly consist of nine episodes, compared to season one's eight. Elsewhere on the  Stranger Things  news front, Millie Bobby Brown, who pla
