New "Snow White" Movie Looks Amazing But Is Sadly Doomed...
(video link)
After the somewhat cartoonish bird at the beginning, everything looks fantastic. The effects look amazing, the film looks exciting and I'm finding myself taking a retelling of Snow White seriously. What's more, the cast looks pretty good from Charlize Theron (In The Valley of Elah, Monster) and Chris Hemsworth (Thor) in leading roles, to various smaller roles played by Eddie Marsan, Toby Jones, Ray Winstone, Nick Frost and Bob Hoskins.
The problem? Kristen biting-my-lips-means-I'm-acting Stewart. She had me half-believing she could act in Adventureland (though I had my suspicions), but the double-whammy of the Twilight movies and Into The Wild seems to have confirmed that she's a bit pants really. Now it's possible that this is a more suitable role and the director working on his debut feature will get the best out of her, but I'm not holding my breath.
But damn that trailer looks good....
