Blanca Nieves

Snow White remake set out to modernize the classic fairy tale, but it ultimately leaves audiences disappointed. The film fails to stay true to the original story while also struggling to establish its own identity.

First and foremost, the lifeless script is a major issue. The characters lack depth, the dialogues feel artificial, and there's no emotional connection with the audience. Key elements of the fairy tale have been altered, but rather than making the story more engaging, these changes strip it of its essence.

The performances aren't particularly impressive either. Rachel Zegler's portrayal of Snow White lacks charisma and inspiration, making the character feel ordinary and at times even unlikable. Additionally, the characters replacing the seven dwarfs are weakly designed and serve no meaningful purpose in the story.

When it comes to visuals and production quality, the film is shockingly mediocre for a Disney production. The CGI looks cheap, backgrounds feel artificial, and instead of creating a magical atmosphere, the movie ends up looking dull and uninspired.

Ultimately, this film feels like Disney turning its back on its own legacy. It doesn't come across as a loving modernization of a beloved classic but rather a project driven by political correctness with little artistic vision. The result? A failed adaptation that neither satisfies old fans nor captivates new audiences.

Another remake where Disney continues to kill the magic of its classic animations...

This movie completely misses the mark by stripping away the character's signature softness and warmth. Rachel Zegler's Snow White comes across more frustrated than kind, often sounding angry rather than hopeful or gentle. While she has a strong voice, it doesn't fit the character, making her feel more like a rebellious heroine than the classic princess.

Gal Gadot's Evil Queen doesn't help either her performance feels stiff and uninspired, she sounded bored and it completely took away the charm.

The CGI dwarfs are another misstep, looking awkward and unnatural, which only adds to the film's disjointed feel.

Putting aside of all the political controversy and discussions revolving around the film, if we focus this remake as itself, still, it is really unnecessary and quite dull.

Disney has continued to prove that live-action remakes of classic animated tales are getting tiresome and unoriginal. Besides The Jungle Book and Pete's Dragon remake being pretty good, the other remakes have remained dull, baffling, or offensive. Snow White is one of those dull ones. Covered with excessive usages of CGI and colors, the camerawork, production style and colors feel bloated and unsocial. Alongside with the bland direction, uninteresting takes of how they tell the tale and where the characters were once beloved in the animated movie, becomes lifeless and uninteresting here. The choice of using CGI dwarfs really was a bad idea because it came off as quite uncanny and unintentionally creepy to observe at times.

The performances....aren't very great. Rachel Zegler does give her best as she does have solid moments including some of the voice performances from the other cast. Gal Gadot, however, her performance really didn't work at all. Gadot lacks the emotion and creep charm to what the Evil Queen should have been.

Despite some good looking designs on the backgrounds and all, it was really boring. Marc Webb tries his best but unfortunately, really little about this would ever work.

Please, audiences, stop giving the remakes money because they are just as responsible for the remakes to keep existing.

The only real good thing I have to say about the movie was with some of the songs and Ziegler and Gadot have the chops to sing them well. Otherwise, this movie falls into the same trap that other previous iterations have done which was they all strayed from the original plot line. It certainly didn't help that some of the Production and effects felt obviously rushed. These main factors makes me not want to recommend this movie to anyone. If you want to watch Snow White, I would recommend saving your money and watch the original Snow White and the Seven Dwarves on DVD, Blu Ray or Video Cassette if you're old school.

Disney DNA was originality, innovative artistry, emotional storytelling, attention to detail, timeless appeal and a sense of wonder. These remakes all fail on every aspect.

• Originality: (It's a remake after all)

• Innovative artistry: There is no innovative tech, or anything that pushes movie making forward.

• Emotional storytelling: While the singing is good enough to make you feel chills, in terms of story it just doesn't lands and feels emotionally flat. Maybe, grumpy amd sleepy get close to making you feel something, but it gets easily overshadow.

• Attention to detail: The dwarfs look creepy and also weird when they are next to Rachel Zegler. And the other sub plot with the 7 randoms just make you feel like this movie was chopped in post by executives who intervene in the creative process.

• Timeless appeal: The original was timeless theme, a kind hearted humble princess who was pretty on the inside and outside VS a jealous arrogant egocentric queen who was all about superficiality. This one is about a woman who wants to overthrow the government because she believes she is more kind than the queen. Very lazy and forgettable.

Sense of wonder: No imagination, you don't feel like you are exploring something you haven't seen before, it doesn't spark that childlike curiosity and awe about things that aren't real, but could be plausible.

Disney DNA died in the 90s. Ever since then they have been culturally and creatively bankrupt, and only survived thanks to all the acquisitions of far more creative and imaginative studios which they gradually are turning to trash.

The original snow white is still remembered almost a century later whereas the new one will be forgotten a year from now.

When people have to choose which one to watch, people will say "let's watch the good one" without specifying what the good one is, and yet everyone will instantly know what the good one is; the animated one.
