    So this was what started all these disastrous live action remakes?
    At least I could sit through the full runtime of this one and it had some stuff to chew on. Some of the songs were okay, the plot was okay.
    Unfortunately the acting of the main kid just wasn't great and while he exhibited potential, he needed much better directing.

    Horrendous casting choices for both Snow White and the Evil Queen aside, this movie took 7 jobs away from people with dwarfism in the name of some gobbledygook political correctness.
    That is fucked up.

    Gal Gadot could have been replaced with a tree and the acting would have been more believable. The songs are bad, the plot is bad, it looks terrible and it's just an exercise in woke, instead of an actual fucking movie?
    What's the point of this? Only lasted an hour. Glad it flopped. Fuck this.

    This is the most boring, pretentious and drowsily written shite I've seen this year, if not ever.
    By far the worst thing I've watched in 2023 so far. I'm writing this about 75% in, it's absolute torture. My skin is crawling. I need it to be over. I hate it.

    What is anyone talking about? Why should I care? The cinematography is just Wes Anderson wanking into my eye, what do all these colours SERVE??
    THE JOKES ARENT FUNNY, STOP…

    Loved loved loved it from start to finish. Acting is incredible, I had to Google the Academy Awards afterwards to make sure Fraser got something for his performance, which is breathtaking. The writing is great, the sound design is great and the limited scenery highlights the reclusiveness of the character very well. The makeup was amazing. Just emotionally powerful and well acted throughout.

    The criticisms of this film were that the metaphors and writing were thin but I don't get…
