Belle (2021)
Watch Belle Full Movie Online
Suzu is a 17-year-old high school student living in a rural town with her father. Wounded by the loss of her mother at a young age, Suzu one day discovers the massive online world “U” and dives into this alternate reality as her avatar, Belle. Before long, all of U’s eyes are fixed on Belle, when, suddenly, a mysterious dragon-like figure appears before her.
Review:
I watched this movie in the theater because there wasn’t anything else worth watching (that I hadn’t already seen, Encanto and The King’s Man are both excellent films) so I wasn’t expecting too much. So I was pleasantly surprised by how good this movie is. It’s got a few slow moments and gets a little … for lack of a better word Japanesey at points. Which is to say, if you’re not used to Japanese stories it might be a little weird but if you ARE used to them, you’ll understand what I mean.
There were two different scenes that really hit my emotions. Without spoiling anything I’ll just say the first being when we see what happened to her mother and second scene being when we find out why the Dragon has his bruises. That second one made me cry my dang eyes out.
Is it perfect? Of course not. I would have liked to see more of Belle in the online world and see her character having a longer life there before the rest of the plot comes charging along. It wasn’t really clear to me how exactly Belle became such a huge hit. I think I understand but it was a little confusing. And it’s a little bit cheesy at times but that’s okay sometimes.
It’s not for everyone. If you don’t enjoy this kind of movie you won’t enjoy it. But I did 🙂
