Snow White and the Huntsman

Kristen Stewart (Snow White)
Chris Hemsworth (The Huntsman)
Charlize Theron (Ravenna)

     This movie should have been called the Ravenna and the Huntsman. The concept is a unique and creative twist on the original story portrayed by Walt Disney. The evil Queen (Ravenna) is more evil than ever before, and the Huntsman lives up to his name and brings intensity and action to almost every scene he is in and then there is Snow White.Lets just say if you are a fan of Kristen Stewart you will LOVE this movie; and if you are not a "FAN", then you wont see it this weekend.

      The graphics were amazing, the caste, the background images of flowing mountains and the dark forest take the fairy tale images from your head and put them directly on the screen. The story line made sense, and the transition from one scene to another was smooth and easy to follow. If you are looking for a fantasy movie with beautiful visual effects comparable to Lord of the Rings, this movie will deliver. If you enjoy remakes that are just as good if not better than the original, go see this movie. BUT........
   
      If only this movie had a heroine that could at least maintain the bar set by Theron (Ravenna) and Hemsworth (The Huntsman). I am not quite sure if it was the writing, or the acting, but in every moment that began building passion, intensity, or a dynamic twist; once the spotlight was shifted to Stewart (Snow White) the moment was lost. Don't follow the hype behind this movie to the theater this weekend. If you just have to see it on the big screen wait a few weeks for the dollar theater.

I rated this movie 5.75 out of 10.
Rated PG-13
Run Time: 127 mins
