Blanche Neige

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...

As always, whenever there's a negative hype around a movie, my mindset is always, prove them wrong, give it a chance.

It's diabolical, honestly, I can't understand how so much money and so much time has gone into this, the final result is cringe worthy. It is an absolute shocker, I am stumped to find any positives.

It looks and feels so artificial, the sets, the animals, as for The Dwarves themselves, I have no words to express my feelings there.

The biggest catastrophe, not what I was expecting if I'm honest, the worst offender, Gal Gadot, she looks sensational, but her performance, she's going to scoop some unwanted awards it's fair to say.

What I wasn't expecting, was just how poor the costumes would look on screen, Snow White's just doesn't translate very well, the hairstyle, what were they thinking?

Disney, what on Earth have you done?

1/10.

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.

This movie makes no sense. It is a complete disaster. My 5-year-old was so upset because the cartoons she watched did not look the same in the film. Disney did not work on the script, horrible actor selection and extremely poor CGI. This movie has everything wrong with modern cinema. The lead actress has no charisma and is not talented to work on classics like Snow White. The screenplay is poor and filibustering. I highly recommend not watching this movie, it is indeed a big disappointment. Disney needs to change its leadership and must remember who the core audience is. If the parents don't like it, then the kids don't like it either. 5 years old are not paying to watch ridiculous movies.

Disney's Snow White (2025) is yet another misguided attempt to modernize a classic, but instead of breathing new life into the beloved fairy tale, it strips away everything that made the original special. With uninspired performances, weak visuals, and forgettable music, this film serves as a prime example of why not every animated masterpiece needs a live-action remake.

Rachel Zegler: A Snow White Lacking Charm Casting Rachel Zegler as Snow White seemed like an interesting choice, but unfortunately, her performance falls flat. While her singing ability is undeniable, her acting lacks the warmth and innocence that defined the character. Instead of a sweet and kindhearted princess, this Snow White comes across as distant, and at times, even uninterested in the story unfolding around her. Her line delivery feels forced, and there's little emotional connection between her and the world she's supposed to inhabit.

Dull Visuals & Poor CGI Disney is known for its stunning animation and groundbreaking CGI, but Snow White (2025) somehow manages to look cheap and unpolished. The enchanted forest, which should have been lush and magical, looks like an over-processed video game backdrop. The CGI dwarfs, which already sparked controversy before release, look awkward and unnatural, making it even harder to connect with them emotionally. Rather than immersing the audience in a fantasy world, the visuals constantly pull you out of the experience.

Music: A Forgettable Soundtrack The one highlight of the film is Zegler's singing, but even that can't save the uninspired and generic new songs. Unlike Disney's previous live-action adaptations, which at least attempted to reimagine classic melodies, Snow White (2025) fails to create any memorable musical moments. The new songs lack the magic of Someday My Prince Will Come or Heigh-Ho, leaving nothing that audiences will hum after leaving the theater.

Conclusion: Another Failed Remake Snow White (2025) is a textbook example of how not to remake a beloved film. Instead of enhancing the story, it strips away its charm and replaces it with a lifeless, forgettable adaptation. Disney had the chance to create something special, but what we got instead is yet another uninspired cash grab that fails to justify its existence. Fans of the original will likely leave the theater disappointed and frustrated, once again questioning why Disney insists on remaking its animated classics when the magic clearly isn't there.

Final Verdict: 2/10 - A dull, unnecessary remake. Just rewatch the original.
