Advantages: great for kids Disadvantages: story bot as good as the original
...big Disney fans and loving Beauty and the Beast we decided to buy this video. I wasn't sure whether or not this continued from the original film but it turns out to be another story altogether.

Advantages: CLASSIC FILM Disadvantages: PREDICTABLE

IT ALSO SHOWS JEALOUSY, DESPERATION, LOVE, ROMANCE, ANGER, FRUSTARTION, RELIEF. THE FILM HAS QUITE A SIMPLE STOREY LINE WHICH IS USEFUL FOR YOUNG ...
