Beastly 2011

Beastly (2011)    Kyle is handsome, arrogant, he detests people who are less attractive and weak.  He invites a classmate Kendra to a rally and then he spurns her in front of everyone.  She doesn't take this lightly and casts a dark spell on Kyle that changes him into an unsightly creature who strikes fear into everyone who sees him.  The curse will last for one year and will be removed if he can find someone to love him for who he is on the inside.
    This seems like a made for TV movie or a soap opera episode?  When Kyle gives a speech about becoming class president and you look at the audience, how can a school be filled with only beautiful, well put together teens without any flaws?  3* (This movie is OK)

86 min, Sci-Fi directed by Daniel Barnz with Alex Pettyfer, Vaness Hudgens, Mary-Kate Olsen, Neil Patrick Harris, Erik Knudsen, Dakota Johnson, Lisa Gay Hamilton, Peter Krause.

Note:  Blockbuster 3*, imdb 5.0 out of 10, 19% critic 50% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
