As with most "Christian" made films, this one is not a slick production and their are no big names etc. BUT...it is reasonably acted, the script is fine as are the sets and location . We enjoyed the film. For those who think it is the worst film they have ever seen...well, they should see more movies then as this one does not deserve that criticism. All in all, it was nice to not have the swearing and the usual vulgarities of what passes today for entertainment. Watch this for yourself.

This is indeed a very cute modern adaptation of a classic tale. The dialogue is a bit weak to open but plays stronger as the characters develop and by the end is enchanting. Don't watch if you're an adrenal junkie and can be satisfied if the characters end up where they started. I enjoy watching movies with eye candy and this one is loaded with beautiful mountain scenes and overly clean houses. This is a worthwhile feel good story that left me smiling.

I LOVE everything about this movie, except the acting. The house is gorgeous, the views are gorgeous, and the message is clear (and relevant). The cheese is strong with this one. It is everything you would expect from a low budget, Christian film. I would definitely recommend seeing this film.

Didn't expect much -- avoided seeing it in its very brief theatrical run -- then heard some good things about it when my brother watched it on DVD. Turns out that BEAUTY & THE BEAST: A LATTER-DAY TALE is a delightful film that is both romantic, touching and thought-provoking. The leads have a chemistry that works and the telling of the familiar story has enough twists and originality to make it compelling. Technically there are a few weaknesses (some shots are on the soft side), but the direction, script and music all blend well together to provide a very enjoyable film. I'm glad that I didn't overlook this one -- for it's a "Gem"!

As a fan of bad movies I really thought this would be another one of them, but I was actually pleasantly surprised. It has a lot of flaws, but overall I actually enjoyed it. Bonus was it didn't shove the bible down my throat as I expected.

Average acting, but great message delivery. Thoroughly enjoyed and will watch again. Lots of lessons to follow and learn. Highly recommend.

I streamed this movie from Amazon Prime, having absolutely no idea as to what it was about. However, I was pleasantly surprised, and my wife and I enjoyed it very much.

As the title suggests, it's a modern-day retelling of the classic Beauty and the Beast story.

To be sure, this film is family-friendly (meaning you can watch it with your entire family without fear of "awkward" moments). However, that doesn't mean that it's not an excellent story and one which you will enjoy very much.

I would highly recommend it.

Firstly, this is *barely* a christian movie, it's like they needed an extra $1000 for the Jacuzzi scenes, but could only get money from a local pastor if they put some Bible talk in it, and that's all it really is, talk ABOUT the bible.

Second: "The Beast" does nothing to earn his nickname, he's just a sad angry dude who gets over it when someone talks to him rather than at him.

Third: Craig is the real beast, I mean seriously, that leather jacket is CLEARLY made from the skins of his victims, and the black puffer jacket he wears near the end is a signal to the world that he is ready to kill again.

Lastly: It's maddeningly shot, and none of the cast interact with anything in the Airbnb they were illegally shooting in...

Avoid this cynical trash.

I really liked this movie. Yes it's labeled as a Christian Romance (or LDS, depending which version you saw), but this is a movie that everyone could enjoy. It makes you rethink Beauty and the Beast in a new light: this version emphasizes forgiveness, second chances, family ties, and loyalty.

I wasn't sure if this was a parody or not for the first few minutes. I gave it about 15 minutes and had to bail out. I cannot believe this film wasn't shut down after the Producers watched the dailies from the first few days.

Matthew Reese and Summer Naomi Smart play the title roles in this LDS produced adaption of Beauty And The Beast. It's a pleasant romantic tale fit for more than church audiences.

Our beast is a millionaire recluse whom if he doesn't change his ways is going to become Mr. Potter in his old age. He lost his wife years ago and except for a housekeeper and a parade of assistants who last like the maids in the Day household in Life With Father.

Into his life comes Belle played by Summer Naomi Smart who's a churchgoing girl and softens the man.

Smart and Reese have some good chemistry and the relationship deepens and even survives a bit of sabotage.

Nice bit of film making from the LDS church.

Contrary to what the title may suggest, this movie is original and pleasantly unpredictable. The production is consistently coherent all the way through. The acting is genuine, and keeps you on the edge of your seat wondering what will happen next. There are enduring moments, and stressful moments, with everything resolving via perfect writing and directing.

The acting is skillful and genuine. Editing is smooth. Above all, the Christian message is uplifting and inspiring, demonstrating in a realistic manner that faith can be renewed, and life's challenges can be overcome.

One reviewer stated that this cannot be a Christian movie because it was filmed in Utah. Not only is this untrue, this is a violation of what this forum is about. Just watch the film and see if you don't find a pleasant evening passing before your eyes and through your heart.
