Snow White and the Huntsman


1.5/5

Well, it's a step up from Mirror Mirror, but it's still at the bottom of a very, very long staircase. I don't believe anything that's happening on screen, and that's with as much suspension of disbelief as one can give a fairy tale. Why exactly does a kiss awaken Snow White when no visible magic was unleashed and no declaration of true loves first kiss as the cure given? Why exactly is the encompassing of life put into a stag that bursts into butterflies when shot with an arrow? The list goes on. Then there's an abundance of silly moments. When confronted by a troll, Hemsworth is knocked to the ground rather quickly. So how is the troll defeated? Kristen Stewart gives an all mighty "RAWRRRRRRR". No, I'm not joking. She rawrs. What's worse? The troll walks away. Seriously? Another silly moment - every moment with Charlize Theron. In fact, the whole cast. It was a battle - over acting vs under acting. On one side, Charlize Theron and her brother over act worse than Travolta in Battle Field Earth. On the other hand, we have Kristen Stewart with about as much passion as she had in...well, Twilight. Seriously she's so passionless and so boring to watch. She never ventured out of a tiny smile or a blank face, unless that blank face had a single tear. And last but not least... you're trying to convince me that Kristen Stewart is more beautiful than Charlize Theron? Really. You're going to try to convince me of that? Not gonna happen.
