Kristen Stewart as Snow White, Charlize Theron as the evil Queen Ravena and Chris Hemsworth as the Huntsman. Lacks character development (especially from the dwarves), overlong and dull at times. Effects were great and score was great, if only the story was more organized. Theron was electrifying and Stewart sincere. We see Hemsworth weaving another weapon and trying to impress. The original fairy tale had more clarity when it comes to storytelling. Snow White and the Huntsman felt forced with its magical CGI and at times over acting and overload of action sequence. Sometimes excess can do you know good, sadly the same could be said on this film. |

This movie actually exceeded my expectations. This is the dark version of Snow White. Charlize Theron was great. It's a good one time watch movie. |

adventure film without soul |

Fairy tales from television mini drama comes as a gear for Sanders huntsman. Yes the title might really make the enticing fans of snow white to hook up and see the spark of her charm. The theme sets the tone by realizing that a evil queen wants to be immortal forever. Well, so to speak, immortality concept, I have seen before. Recently, I had seen On Stranger Tides, where the so called fountain of youth plays a high role. So does Snow white and Huntsman offer some different theme than slappy On Stranger Tides? Oh yes. But it gets chucked so hard that Sanders forgets the plot proceedings.
A king who fought bravely falls for the charm of an evil woman (Charlize Theron). Unknowing of her intention she is made the queen and his only daughter Snow White (Kristen Stewart) witnesses his deat... |

MIRROR, MIRROR, WHO IS THE FAIREST OF THEM ALL? |

Although I love fairy tales I wasn't too enamored about seeing Kristen Stewart as Snow White but when I saw the trailer I thought this movie might be worth seeing because of Charlize Theron as the evil Queen Ravena and Chris Hemsworth as the titular Huntsman whose physique is most definitely worth a look or two, The story of Snow White is well known except this one has a darker tone and a bigger emphasis on the queen and the huntsman so I would spare you the trouble of reading yet another summary.
Charlize Theron is awesome playing her part with passion and conviction so as to be absolutely captivating and believably evil but beneath the obvious nastiness, Theron gives us a character deeply troubled, riddled by insecurity and teetering along a fraying tightrope of sanity. I’ve forgott... |

Snow White and the Huntsman movie review |
|
If you’re unfamiliar with my movie reviews, here’s the way it works: I go check out the latest movie everyone is talking about, drink an astonishing amount of diet soda, and then report back to you, looking for as many things to make fun of as this space allows, while trying to strike a balance with the positive highlights. Welcome. Let’s get started.
THE GOOD: What we have here is an attempt at taking the most mild-mannered and somewhat pathetic princess in history, and giving her a backbone. This is not your childhood fairy tale version, with whistling dwarfs and a helpless girl in a dress, running around with her hand over her mouth, always looking surprised. It’s a much darker and creepier scene playing out, which frankly adds to the appeal in my opinion.
Left motherless as ... |

I agree, I don't think it was awful. Charliza Theron tried her damnedest to keep it afloat and Bob Hoskins actually made me care for at least a little bit. The visuals were all very nice as well. |

I think she actually may have shown, like, three emotions during the film, though her rousing, inspiring pre-war speech was more "I'M SCREAMING REALLY LOUD TO INSPIRE YOU!" The movie wasn't nearly as terrible as I was expecting - though mainly because all those dwarves were played by actual actors I like. |

Hold on a second ... one emotion? Asking a bit much from young Miss Stewart. |

Probably the biggest film this weekend - My only question going in is will Kristen Stewart manage to show more than one emotion and can Chris Hemsworth turn in an action role that will not remind me of Thor. Fingers crossed that this at least turns out better than Battleship. |
