Snow White and the Huntsman


Snow White and the Huntsman
(2012) [Trailer]
Director: Rupert Sanders [IMDB]

I can imagine at the pitch meeting for this film the producer being like "Ok... forget about the Snow White you think you know, this is a whole new Snow White for a new generation." or some shit like that.

Synopsis: An evil queen tracks down a princess who will give her ever lasting youth.

I wasn't a big fan of this film and there are a lot of things that annoyed me about the story. One main thing is why they decided to introduce the Prince and Thor as Snow White's potential love interests. It didn't seem necessary, just pick one of them and focus on that. It just inflated an overly long movie. There were a few other plot holes and things that didn't work, but whatever. The special effects were pretty good, except for one swamp monster thingy. There was also some really impressive cinematography, but not enough to give this a passing grade from me.
