“Beastly”

The movie is based on the novel By Alex Flinn, where the known fairytale of Beauty And The Beast is re-written to fit modern times, and set in New York City. An innocent practical joke made by Kyle on another class mate (which turns out to be a witch) drags a vengeance that is more like a curse on him, gradually turning Kyle into a beast. With a chance to reverse the curse, Kyle is given the chance to reverse the curse by loving a girl and receiving her love in return, but he only has two years to do so. While living in an entrapped apartment with his father who is obsessed with looks, the only company he has is his blind tutor and the housekeeper. As his time is running out, Kyle turns to desperate measures, using blackmail and kidnapping that somehow turns in to true love, at least from his side. But will the spell be broken on time? Will the love he has found by force find a way to love him back?
