Beastly

Starring: Pettyfer, Alex and Olsen, Mary-Kate

Product Description

Beastly is a teen romance about learning how to see past false surfaces to discover true inner beauty. Seventeen year old Kyle (Alex Pettyfer) is the spoiled, shallow and incredibly popular prince of his high school kingdom. Entirely captivated and empowered by his own physical appearance, Kyle foolishly chooses Kendra (Mary-Kate Olsen), a goth classmate rumored to be a witch, as his latest target for humiliation. Unfazed by his cruel behavior, Kendra decides to teach him a lesson - she transforms him into someone as unattractive on the outside as he is on the inside. Now he has one year to find someone who can see past the surface and love him, or he will remain "Beastly" forever. His only hope, an unassuming classmate he never noticed named Lindy (Vanessa Hudgens), may be his best chance to prove that love is never ugly.

Customer Reviews

Heavy-handed sloppy verging on campy

More than transparent patronizing and a ploy that should never come to the screen. This does not have any resemblance to the classic “Beauty and the Beast” nor the T.V. program. Only the title was used, as you can see, they never read the story. Basic story, inartistic youth (Alex Pettyfer) is cursed by a snubbed witch to look repulsive until someone tells him they love him. Naturally, he starts changing attitudes. He protects a girl (Vanessa Hudgens) from her rough life, and that adds to his recovery. I have a strange feeling that there will be a soundtrack. Filming location: Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia, and Village Roadshow Studios, Oxenford, Queensland, Australia
