Snow White, 2025 - ★★★
Thursday, March 20, 2025
For a story about inner beauty, this movie seems to have only shallow visuals to show off.
I’m sorry if I offended anyone. I have never watched the original version of Snow White, but isn't the story just plain bad? And aren't all the characters just dumb? The premise seems fundamentally flawed, raising questions about how this story gained enough popularity to warrant a remake in the first place.
The musical numbers are enjoyable, and I like the performances. While the choreography in many numbers is uninspired and lacks creativity, it’s still effective. For a musical, it is not the best, but it is still good enough.
However, beyond the music, the film falls short. It follows predictable story beats without generating real tension or emotion. The dialogue is subpar and fails to deliver any meaningful message.
The acting is decent—acceptable but not exceptional. But, I must say no performance from any actors can redeem this weak storyline, so I do not blame the actors for this flop. The writing is just fundamentally poor.
The only aspect I truly enjoyed was the animals; they are all incredibly adorable! I wish the filmmakers had chosen to focus on them instead of these silly characters. LOL
