Mirror mirror on the wall who is the fairest of them all? Why my dear Queen Raevena it is not you (Charlize Theron), it is but another. With skin as white as snow, it is but Snow White (Kristen Stewart). Never in my life did I think I would say these words. 
Kristen Stewart is Snow White. Poor defenseless Snow White trapped in a tower by her wicked Stepmother who has taken the kingdom to the dogs with her evil reign. Snow White of course being the ultimate undoing to her wicked ways and once she escapes her dungeon the fight for the Crown is on like Donkey Kong.
Starring Chris Hemsworth as the peasant Thor with darker hair i.e The Huntsman. Swapping Nordic Hammer for hunting axe, English majestic accent replaced by the brutish Scottish take. Hemsworth is contracted by the Queen to venture into the dark forest, find and deliver Snow White. Which of course lasts around 4 minutes long. The Hunstman finds Snow White. Decides not to deliver her to the Queen and then rather quickly falls in love with her.

One strong element to the flick is the fast paced nature. The movie never slows even a little, but it could ultimately be its downfall. Elements such as the Huntsman finding Snow White, Snow White being trained in combat, the comedic seven dwarfs and the Huntsman's love for Snow all deserved development that seemingly occurred off screen.
I was also a bit confused on who exactly this film was targeted towards. At times it felt largely designed for a more feminine mind. The romantic moments, tragic tales of loss and of course the massive amounts of CGI animals on board to lend a touch of Disneyesque sentimentality.
Then there was the creepy acid trip dark forest, the haunting psychotic Queen and the action sequences. Making Snow White a possible attempt at keeping the guys who have been dragged along by their other halves entertained for at least the odd minute or two. I don't think it worked girls. 
The accents however weren't terrible. The acting was not terrible. The general plot was not terrible. Considering Snow White & The Huntsmen comes from first time director Rupert Sanders...its not terrible. It could have been a lot more but still a fine effort in the overall grand scheme of all things Snow White.
