My Review-

This movie was not too bad, I mean we can see that Kristen Stewart has more then one facial expression, however this movie is not for kids. I saw some parents bringing their kids to the movie; the movie was dark, violent, and had a few scary parts for kids. At times this movie was pretty boring, then it would get back into full gear. Some of my favorite parts were when the seven dwarves came into the movie. Some of the coolest actors were the dwarves too and I think that was when the movie got even better was when they entered the movie, they were both funny and cool when they were fighting. Also I was actually scared of Charlize Theron in this movie, she was fucking scary and evil. First time I had ever seen here in a role like this, its mostly romance movies or comedies she in, and for me seeing her in this movie was cool because it was so different. Some of the action scenes were pretty cool, and so were the visual effects, at times I forgot Kristen Stewart was in the twilight films since this movie was so vastly different from the Twilight films. I even though Kristen Stewart was actually pretty good looking in this movie. Another thing that was cool about this movie was that Chris Hemsworth was pretty funny in the film at times and he had a cool accent in the movie which I think was Scottish. I thought the movie could have been a little bit better, and it did not really need to be over two hours it could have been maybe a little bit under and it would have still worked as it well as it did. Lastly it was also nice to see a darker take on Snow White and less of the happy go lucky ones that we have seen lately, like with Mirror, Mirror.
