Snow White and the Huntsman



"In a twist to the fairy tale, the Huntsman ordered to take Snow White into the woods to be killed winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen."  www.imdb.com

This is actually a pretty good movie. Decent storyline. It would be better if it wasn't a Snow White story though. It just has too much to be Snow White. Granted we are use to simple fairytale stories. We like the characters introduced, told what the problem is, and then get right to the happily ever after. This film draws it out a bit and gives more emphasis to the conflict then the happily ever after. So it's good and bad. This could be the start of a new form of fairytale story telling.

Charlize Theron is amazing as always and gives an outstanding performance. The other actors really could have been anyone and done just as good of a job.

They did steal a scene from the anime movie Princess Mononoke. It was a good scene to take. But sucks they stole a scene.
