It's not the most original story, but Beautiful Creatures is a well made film. The lead actors Alice Englert (Lena) and Alden Ehrenreich (Ethan) both give wonderful performances that eclipse almost everyone else apart from Emma Thompson.
I haven't seen the Twilight films or any of the other recent youth-romantic-fantasy genre, so I can't compare. For romantiphobic men this is one of those films that you can take your girlfriend to see and both enjoy.
The plot is nothing special, so the watchability is all down to the acting and sound direction by Richard LaGravenese.
Not one to rave about; but I enjoyed it.
