Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
sophiakushner I've seen twilight and it sucks because of Kristin Stewart but we can sorta get over that with the fact that Taylor is so hot as is Robert. In this sorry Chris but you just don't make the cut because Kristen is just that bad of an actor. I would rather watch twilight with my ex than have sex with my boyfriend while this is playing it sucks. I started to laugh less than halfway through it which isn't good at all. If you want to watch something good or that may get two stars watch twilight. If u want to enjoy yourself then watch arrested development because it's supposed to be funny and you won't throw up in your mouth. Personally I feel bad for the staff at the theater when that came out there must have been A LOT of puke because everyone did it when they got home if they could make it out of their seat.
MarcSchmarc Anyone expecting King Lear or Hamlet performances in a film like this, have come to the wrong shop. That said, there could have been a bit more life ... or identifiable emotion or some sort ... in about half the closeups we get of Kristen Stewart. Regardless of what she was supposed to be looking at, an evil queen, a dwarf, a mudsplattered huntsman, a monster troll, a magical elk-dear thing that looked like Harry Potter's patronus, she had the same expression: nothing. OK, true, with a CGI drowned fairy tale adventure/cliffhanger movie, you can't expect much. But it might have been fun if Snow White had possessed something onscreen that would have had some sass, intelligence, or pizzazz. Script wise, there are some head scratchers and inconsistencies. Maybe this was a result of editing? Having to make room for long action sequences (a thundering calvalry charge which seemed so enless and seemed to keep starting back at the same point, made me think of something similar in, I think, some Monty Python bit ... maybe in MP and the Holy Grail ... or am I just confusing it with some other endless thing with a knight running with a cocoanut clicking sidekick?). And one big, huge, absolute fail: how it was only upon learning he'd been tricked, did the Huntsman suddenly go from drunken, sullen, would-be murderer to brave, focused hero protector. Huh??? That's quite a sea change, even for a script where logic and continuity takes second place. Character development isn't in this film. But ... should it be? Maybe not. Maybe it's just a fun, popcorn chomper. Yet ... might have been more of a pure entertainment, without the acting and plot leaps, leaping out from time to time. The cinematic magic on this one just barely works.
Mihai Toma When Snow White was a little child, her mother died, leaving behind a desperate King not knowing what to do with his life. After a battle with the dark forces, he finds Ravenna as prisoner and astonished by her beauty, he marries her the same day. From then, all chaos breaks loose. The King is assassinated by his wife and she becomes the cruel and dark ruler who kills innocent without mercy. Show White manages to escape from her imprisonment after many years, is found in the dark forest by a Huntsman who abandons his mission of killing her while promising to help her return to Duke Hammond from where she can start avenging her father.This movie begins completely wrong in my opinion. It wants to make you believe that a king would marry any prisoner, traitor, convict (however you want to call it) just because she's beautiful and then being killed by her so easily...it simply puzzles you. All the plot is filled with such lack of logic, I mean, how can you believe that the Huntsman can love her more than William after he abandoned her without any remorse (and then coming back to "save" her like nothing had happened)? How can you believe that a castle can be attacked by an army, led by a girl who knows absolutely nothing about war and battle, which has a plan based on pure luck and that it survives long enough in front of that castle (being shot at by archers and balilsta for quite some time) to fight a whole army inside it as well? Furthermore, although I it that Kristen's role isn't very well put together, she doesn't seem to do anything to make it look any better. Everything regarding the story looks so superficial, so badly put together...makes you wonder, Is this another episode of Twilight? Even the ending is bad...she gets her crown and black screen...The End. No honors? No Party? No nothing...not even thanks to all those who helped along the way...pathetic. Lucky for this movie is that it compensates with great animations and superb landscapes. They sort of take your attention away from the awful plot. Without them, it would have been almost worthless. An average movie, just to be kind with it
Mintroll This originally comes from a tale of snow white, and the arranged story is very interesting. I love this film. The beautiful visual is worth watching. The clear and fine differences between beautiful and ugly visuals make this film much better. And every actions are reflected to another one. Especially in the last scene of fighting Snow White against the queen. Anyway, from the beginning to the end, the story is always exciting. I understand the concept of this story. Snow White is confined for long time and she has to fight against the queen, but if I am allowed to hope for more, I wanted to see more kindness and smiles of Snow White.
