Synopsis: Beautiful Creatures (2013) [Blu-ray]

Product Description

When newcomer Lena Duchannes arrives in the small town of Gatlin she quickly captures the attention of Ethan Wate, who only wants to escape what he views as a boring and dead end town. He quickly gets more than he bargained for, as Lena possesses strange powers that have long kept her at a distance from others in her life. Lena and Ethan are drawn together, but their budding romance is threatened by the dangers posed by Lena's being a Caster and her family's Dark powers, for upon her sixteenth birthday Lena must undergo the Claiming, a process that will decide her fate forever: Light or Dark.

Beautiful Creatures flies into the otherworldly romantic sphere occupied by the Twilight films, Buffy, The Vampire Diaries, True Blood--even Charmed. Based on the best-selling young adult book by Kami Garcia, the film adaptation of Beautiful Creatures tells a romantic tale between two young people with mysterious, dark backgrounds--and more than one secret. The young stars, Alice Englert as Lena and Alden Ehrenreich as Ethan, to whom she's mysteriously drawn, have a sweet, believable chemistry. And because it's directed by pro Richard LaGravenese (the underrated but fabulous Living Out Loud, P.S. I Love You), Beautiful Creatures is blessed with high production values; a quick, satisfying pace; and a supporting cast to die for (maybe literally). Emma Thompson, Viola Davis, Emmy Rossum, and Jeremy Irons, especially, seem to be enjoying themselves immensely as titular grownups in a teenage love story. This cast--and Lena's unexpected but badass supernatural power--all help add up to a delicious guilty pleasure. Beautiful Creatures shines with much more polish than some of the Twilight films, but carries just as much dramatic yearning. As well it should. --A.T. Hurley

    2.0 out of 5 stars I can't believe the authors allowed their story to be butchered., February 17, 2013
    This review is from: Beautiful Creatures (2013) (DVD)
    I feel like I need to preface this by saying the trailer of this movie made me want to read the book. Also, you should know that this review will contain SPOILERS, so do not continue reading if you don't want to know why this movie doesn't do the book justice.

    When I first saw the movie trailer, I thought to myself it looked like something I would enjoy since I really liked the Twilight series, and I initially saw it as "Twilight except with witches"... errr... "Casters". Since the movie opening was a month away, it left me plenty of time to read the book. I really enjoyed reading Beautiful Creatures and read the entire book (all 550+ pages) very quickly.

    I knew I'd want to see this movie as soon as I could, so I was sure to make it a showing opening weekend.

    Overall, I REALLY did not like the movie. I... Read more

    This review is from: Beautiful Creatures (2013) (DVD)
    I wasn't expecting the movie to be the same as the book, and it wasn't, but I really liked it and thought the performances were splendid.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good movie, not so good adaptation, April 21, 2013
    This review is from: Beautiful Creatures (2013) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
    I know it is hard to separate the review of a movie and that of its literary counterpart. I do my best to look at the as a separate story, because in most cases they are. Beautiful Creature is a great book and I do wish that the movie could have instilled a little more of the key points from the book into it's big screen adaptation, but as a movie I really enjoyed it. There was a great cast to the movie and some great scenery throughout the movie. If your going to harshly pick about the differences between the book and movie, this probably will not be the movie for you. However, if you intend on watching it as more of a cinematic adventure then your in for a good time. It was a entertaining movie and was not a waste of money in my opinion. There were a lot of good parts of the movie and on that alone makes it at least a 4 star, but add in the on camera chemistry between the lead characters as well as the supporting cast I boost it up to a 4 1/2 star (Unfortunately Amazon doesn't do...
