The Beautiful Beast

A fairly predictable movie, but it's probably what you wanted to see if you tuned it in. And it serves its purpose and satisfies your "feel good movie" craving. It works. Shona Kay is stunning of course and delivers a solid performance here.

My only complaint is the sound. The music overpowers the dialog constantly. In many scenes, changing camera angles introduced a noticeable echo mid sentence. In short, the sound quality is terrible.

I love a good love story and like the character arcs of the two main characters. I think that she would have been better on skis since the rich ski all the time. I grew up with rich people so that is unrealistic. As behavior goes, she is not the worst person in the movie. Everyone in the movie is unkind at times and some of the dialogue proves that other people who seem to be good people can also be unkind and say unkind things. Another thing, she said that she makes appearances at charity events. The last charity event she went to was not what a rich person calls a charity event but she worked at a soup kitchen. That is not what the rich mean by a charity event. The foundation. What is that? Do they just work at soup kitchens? or do they head up donations for the poor? But it was great seeing the two main characters change and fall for each other. Well, it has many good points.

This is a great movie, so true to life in many ways. As a cognitive neuroscientist, I greatly appreciated how this film represented how one's past influences one's choices and direction in life. It also showed how our past, while it influences our present, once we recognize ourselves and the decisions we make, we can break from this, and have a future that is our choice, not a choice based on a past.

The only part in the filming that was odd was the road, but it is ok. I do not want to say much more.

Overall great story. True to life. This is a great film where educators and therapists can use to get a conversation started to get on to begin to look at their own behaviors.

The film is entertaining as well.

Enjoyed the prayer to God through the movie,even though the lead actress was very selfish the lead actor has some challenges too,feel good movie

The attitudes and behaviors of materialistic rich people do not entertain me, but as this movie went along, the lead character's spoiled and selfish outer shell began to melt as she warmed up to her love interest who spoke truth and gave her a dose of tough love which humbled her enough to find real love and happiness didn't come from her bank account. Worth the watch.
