Review: SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN is Dwarfed By Its Messy Ending: "It's a long standing tradition that Hollywood brings us certain films in pairs. Antz came out around the time of Bug's Life, Volcano and Dante's Peak within weeks of one another, Armageddon and Deep Impact - the list goes on.
2012 saw this trend reignite with the release of two Snow White-themed films. Late Winter's Mirror Mirror starred Julia Roberts as the nasty queen, and for more than several reasons I skipped that flick. The one that actually looked promising, with its mix of genre actors capped by a dreamy monstrous Queen played by a genuinely capable actress was Snow White and the Huntsman (Shall we call it SWATH? Sure.). With its mix of Gothic-ish imagery and broad, brash character moments, one could hope based on the trailer alone that we were in for a back-to-basics take of the original grim, Grimm tale.
