Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
lisafordeay Beauty and the Beast Enchanted Christmas is a direct to Vhs follow up of the most acclaimed film of all time Beauty and The Beast which has been given the live action makeover with Emma Watson and Dan Stevens. This one is based on the something there segment with Mrs Potts telling her son Chip about Belle and the Beast starting to fall for each other,but an evil organ named Forfe voiced by Tim Curry doesn't want the beast and belle to fall in love and will do anything to get rid if Belle. But will Beast accept Xmas since he isn't a lover of it?Overall I found this one not bad. Is it as good as the 1991 classic no way
mcalester66 This is a good example of Disney's love of "milking" their products. The story is set back when Belle was held captive at the castle, and recounts what happened that Christmas. The Beast models after Scrooge, and hates Christmas, because it was on Christmas Eve that the spell was placed on him. Tim Curry plays an outstanding villain (as usual). A frightening CGI Pipe Organ, once hated by the Beast, now his only friend. Curry's motive: to keep Belle from loving the Beast so he can have him to himself and play his music for him forever. I recently watched this after quite a few years of not seeing it and was enchanted as the title says. It's worth seeing for it's beautiful score, unfortunately not by Alan Menken, with songs like "As Long as There's Christmas" at one point sung by miss Bernadette Peters, and "Don't Fall In Love" sung by Tim Curry. Not Disney's best, but worth buying. I promise that you'll enjoy it.
kstanley3804 This is a very cute movie. It is about a Christmas while Belle is at the castle with the Beast. She tries to bring Christmas to the castle, but he won't allow it.This movie is made to have taken place while Belle was still the Beast's prisoner, before they all turned human again and the Beast and Belle fell in love, just as all other Beauty and the Beast productions are. This is just how they did the Little Mermaid TV series, too, because they both involve magical transformations. Just as Ariel wouldn't be "the little mermaid" in a series of that title if she were human, it wouldn't be Beauty and "the Beast's" Enchanted Christmas if the Beast were human! :) I hope this helps and answers any questions!
Jeremy Bristol Apparently it is just as easy--and quick!--to write an illuminated manuscript as it is to fall forever and truly in love! In one afternoon, Belle creates an illustrated fairy tale for the beast--written in French in perfect type, except by hand! That shows the kind of time-carelessness that plagues Beauty and the beast as well as many other of Disney's movies.Of course, this movie is slid into a time period in the first movie that I always suspected existed but that, through careless or ill-advised editing, was erased from existence--either on purpose or more likely on accident. In either case, the original as it stands spans a week at most--more likely three or four days. Not enough time to slip Enchanted Christmas into it, even if the original begins on December 22, without making the whole character arc an erratic mess (as this movie is). This is no sequel but a "what if there was more time" theorum.That said, there were some good moments of eye candy animation that kept things from being so bogged down in absolute sappiness. Still, I couldn't help thinking that it was a grand folly to typecast the Beast as The Grinch in a cheezy, too-serious disneyfied remake of Dr. Seuss' book and Chuck Jone's classic cartoon that were both funny and touching in perfect balance.
