For as stupid as I thought this movie would be; it definitely surprised me. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fucking stupid, but it actually had potential.
Everyone (and don’t tell me you don’t liar) knows the story of Snow White. An evil queen wants to kill a young looker and she escapes to the forest to be sheltered by some dwarves until her prince (am I confusing this with Sleeping Beauty?) comes to the rescue, or the queen tries to kill her again, or… Well you get the general idea.
If I had to compare this movie to something I’ve seen it’d be First Knight. It takes a well known story and tells a shit version of it that doesn’t really make sense. But like First Knight, Snow White and Thor is very visually appealing. And Charlize Theron (I always mangle her name and I’m not looking it up because I’m writing this review on an old Blackberry) is really impressive as the evil queen. Twilight chick is actually good as Snow White. The girl can yell. Helmsworth is good as the titular Huntsman. The dwarves are actually kind of cool and creepy. I suppose if I had to summarize the film; I’d say it was Snow White told with World of Warcraft characters.
So why is it stupid? Because of the words that come out of everyone’s mouth. This movie is over 2 hours long and filled with dialogue. And as far as I can tell, nobody actually said shit. Visually impressive, and the actors bring their game, but they were given very little as far as lines that make sense or a non-retarded plot to work with. This movie should have been 20 minutes long, containing no dialogue, and been some sort of rock opera. It would have worked like that. Instead everyone talks endlessly about nothing. The actors are so good it won’t piss you off for the 1st half hour; but the movie is much longer than that.
The writer(s?) probably needed to take a month to figure out what the hell they were trying to say. There really was potential here.
But stupid is still stupid. Verdict: skip it.
