Summary: Beauty and the Beast DVD - definately a beauty
Review: I was so happy that one of my most favorite Disney movies was finally going to be out on DVD. I wasn't disappointed either. The classic came back to life because the picture was so amazing and the sound that much better. I also enjoyed all the special features that came with this DVD, namely being able to watch the entire DVD in French. That was quite amusing. A must have for any true Disney fan!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best Disney movies!
Review: Beauty and the Beast is definitely one of the best Disney movies, the DVD is great, and I love that it has 3 different versions of the movie including the original theatrical version, I enjoyed watching the Special Edition version which added music and scenes without taking away from the charm of the original and I also enjoyed the work in progress version it was interesting. Though not as good as the extras on the Snow White DVD the extras on this Beauty and the Beast DVD are good. Beauty and the Beast was one of my favorite fairy tales as a child and I think Disney did a great job with it and I think it's a movie that people of any age can enjoy and I just highly recommend this DVD in all it's widescreen glory because it's much better watching the movie in it's original theatrical aspect ratio instead of the pan & scan video tape!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredible! Especially the Special Features!!!!
Review: This is an incredible DVD! I loved it!
I espcially loved the Special Features section where they did an interview with the artist that designed the "Transformation" sequence of the Beast. Absolutely phenomenal!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Disney Masterpiece!
Review: I had purchased this movie when it was first released on video. When I saw that it was being re-released onto DVD, with extra stuff, no doubt, I had to pre-order it! I absolutely LOVE this DVD!! It has 3 different versions of the film you can view...I mean..who has ever done this before? Also, all of the extra footage, games, tidbits, etc. makes this a MUST PURCHASE for anyone who has children, or who still is a kid at heart;....me for example! :)

Summary: The Greatest One of All!
Review: In my opinion, this movie was the best Disney movie ever made!It's one of those movies that you can watch over and over again without getting sick of it. Beauty and the Beast is an all-time classic and I'm so happy that it is finally coming out on DVD. The characters in this film are well portrayed and the musical features are fantastic! I cry every time I watch it and I can't wait to get it! It's definitely on my Christmas list!

Summary: My Favorite Disney Movie
Review: I do believe we all love Disney movies...I do not know how anyone could not. They are normally love stories (which I love), but that is not all that there is to it. These movies are animated, but don't you think that they aren't any good. I think they are some of the best movies around! Oh and yes they are created for children, but that doesn't mean you won't enjoy them. In fact, I enjoy them just as much now as I did when I was young, if not more. The older ones are better though. I do not really like the ones that have come out just recently (The Hunchback of Notre Dame, etc.).
Beauty and The Beast is a classic story of a "beast" and a beautiful woman who comes to love the beast for who he is inside, not just what he looks like on the outside...kind of like judging a book from its cover. This is something we can all learn from. When she first meets him, he is quite mean. But with time, he grows and a wonderful creature emerges from deep within. This is probably my favorite Disney movie. My favorite scene is when she is wearing that gold dress...it's just so beautiful. Everyone loves love stories; everyone loves Disney movies--so when you combine the two you get some of the best movies ever created! I would highly reccommend this movie--adults too!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent but Disney needs to do a better QA
Review: I love this film and highly recommend it!

HOWEVER, Disney seems to be sloppy about their QA process... We just got our copy and tried to play it in French, then we found something really bizarre. The first couple of minutes, the film kept on switching between draft version of black-and-white (in French) and color (in English); after that, it was all in pencil draft black-and-white in French. We checked our copy but found no scratches. This is obviously a technical problem from the careless Disney.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good movie, nice add ons with the extra DVD
Review: My kids really liked the movie, as well as all the games and additional scenes, etc that came with the 2nd DVD. I can highly recommend this movie (and contrary to what you hear about disney putting hidden sexual subliminal messages, I saw - or didn't see - nothing. Either way, it's a really nice movie for kids. Just be warned, the younger kids (under 3) might get scared by a few scenes with the beast.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fabulous features, but lacking in richness
Review: Don't get me wrong, I love this movie and the special features on the DVD are out of this world (I highly reccommend the "Work in progress" version of the film...amazing). The one thing that bothers me is that somewhere in the high-definition digital transfer, the original richness and vibrancy was lost. The colors in this DVD edition seem to be muted and rather lackluster compared to my original VHS copy. If you've seen the original, you'll know what I mean. The limited pallette is really my only complaint for this DVD edition. All the fabulous extras make up for it.
