Suzu is a 17-year-old high-school student living in a rural town with her father. Wounded by the loss of her mother at a young age, Suzu one day discovers the massive online world "U" and dives into this alternate reality as her avatar, Belle. Before long, all of U's eyes are fixed on Belle, when, suddenly, a mysterious, dragon-like figure appears before her.

A little too much cringe than necessary but overall the story was worth watching. Although I have to say that this movie was highly overrated. Plot was definitely good but nothing extraordinary.

I was fortunate enough to see this tonight as a part of Fantastic Fest and I can only describe this as Mamoru Hosoda's masterpiece. I am so glad I was able to see it on the big screen because the music is absolutely stunning.. and my meager TV at home without surround sound never could replicate it. The characters are so lovingly created and the visuals are absolutely gorgeous.. I cannot recommend this enough. If you watch this without crying then it is you who is the beast! 10/10

Show?
First of all, the music goes so hard. I instantly Shazamed the first two songs. Second, I kinda just jumped in so I was not expecting this to be a Beauty and the Beast retelling! And I thought, predictably, that the Beast would be her childhood friend the entire time. On the one hand, I'm glad it didn't take that uninspired route, but on the other, man I really wanted them to end up together. But I enjoyed this so much.

The beauty and the beast in scifi.

While Belle works as a great musical it often touches topics that it never explores. The writers clearly show that they thought about a virtual reality and that they actually understand the struggles of it.

At first the VR promises hope and to s More

Belle... A collection of music videos glued together by a really badly written narrative.

Belle is one of the weakest animated movies i have seen in the past few years, and that makes me really sad, as a fan of the director i went into this expecting an 8 or an 9, but what i got is a 5 at best.
