Description: I am a beast.
A beast. Not quite wolf or bear, gorilla or dog but a horrible new creature who walks upright—a creature with fangs and claws and hair springing from every pore. I am a monster.
You think I'm talking fairy tales? No way. The place is New York City. The time is now. It's no deformity, no disease. And I'll stay this way forever—ruined—unless I can break the spell.
Yes, the spell, the one the witch in my English class cast on me. Why did she turn me into a beast who hides by day and prowls by night? I'll tell you. I'll tell you how I used to be Kyle Kingsbury, the guy you wished you were, with money, perfect looks, and the perfect life. And then, I'll tell you how I became perfectly . . . beastly.

I decided to do something different and do a movie trailer rather than a book trailer. Beastly is originally a novel anyway so I guess it doesn't make much of a difference.
I have to admit, I don't like how they portrayed Mary-Kate as the witch. (Just personal opinion. I used to be a huge Mary-Kate and Ashley fan when I was in elementary. I sort of miss them thinking about it now.) I don't know how to perceive this movie nor novel because I heard good and bad things about it.

I'm so going to see this...uh, with my daughter. Yeah, she'd love it and so will I.
I kind of want to see it since I enjoyed the book, but I'm generally pretty apprehensive about movies based on books since they often don't do the book justice :/
I haven't read the book yet but after seeing the movie traile, I really want to go see it.
