Snow White and the Huntsman

Now I thought this movie was going to be about a dark romance with the evil queen looming in the darkness but it wasn't that at all. Now don't get me wrong, it is a dark twist to the classic Snow White story but there really wasn't much romance going on. The Queen played by Charlize Theron, who was amazing in this role, asks the Huntsman played by Australian actor Chris Hemsworth to go into the dark forest and bring back Snow White. The huntsman decides to side with Snow White along with the seven dwarfs they come across in their journey to the Duke's castle. 


When I first found out that Snow White was to be played by Kristen Stewart I was a little worried about how the part was going to turn out. Let's be honest, she's no Oscar winning actor and even though this isn't an Oscar worthy film (at least not in my opinion) I didn't want her bad acting to sink this film. I was glad to see she didn't too bad of a job in this role. The one thing I could have done without was the queen's creepy brother...now he was cringe worthy for sure. I would recommend this for family as I don't see it being bad for children to watch. I thought that it was well done and the cinematography was amazing! 

Budget:
$170,000,000 (Estimated)
Gross:
$56,217, 700 (USA)
$309,394,227 (Worldwide)
