BEASTLY: TRITE, BUT NOT BEASTLY
Sometimes I like just watching movies that I usually never watch, and usually never admit to watching and this was one of them. It isn't a good movie, but it also wasn't so bad I turned it off before the ending. Basically, pretty people are bad. Popular high school guy Kyle (Alex Pettyfur) is supposed to be such a jerk and full of himself that school goth-witch Mary-Kate Olsen decides to turn him into a "beast" and will stay that way until he gets someone to love him as he is. Nice concept, but his "ugly" looks more like Mike Tyson's now infamous face tattoo. So sent to live alone and roam the streets only at night, somehow semi-believably the ONE girl from school that thought Kyle was a good guy (Vanessa Hudgens) ends up having to stay with Kyle and his entourage; witty tutor Neil Patrick Harris and wise Jamaican nanny/housekeeper. Do I really have to tell you how it ends? Certainly trite and been done before but not terrible, close though.
