Decent but ultimately unneeded movie


Snow White is a nice tale about a girl who is ultra fair/white and beautiful and there was a queen who was jealous of her and tries to take her out but she gets saved by some dwarves and a charming prince.
It’s a nice fairy tale with simple message and dream for girls and maybe even boys that you have to take care of people and help people.

This story is now done and the what happened before or after and who and where and all that is irrelevant and filler adds to the story.

Kristen Stewart was well cast as Snow White as she is very fair skinned and fit the “skin as white as snow” well with her beautiful face and eyes and all that. She even looked like the cartoon character.

Here you now have Thor and Zero Dark Thirty lady with some expanded family tree of a sister and all that. Why??
The plot of kids and eliminating some emotion like love etc make no sense.

While the fight scenes were good the whole movie felt pointless to me.
Thor was amazing and Jessica chastain can act well. Emily looked good but Charlize, dear lord, looks like a goddess. Charlize is just a divine beauty. Royal looks and crisp beauty.

But overall I just didn’t get the point of the movie existing in the Snow White universe. It could have been its own separate thing. Connecting to that universe felt out of place to me.

I would have liked a Kristen Stewart sequel as Snow White in that case if they wanted to continue that.

But overall I don’t see the point of this movie, despite being well made and being good.
