    Snow White

    ★★½

    Disney's Snow White is exactly what it's built up to be: a mediocre live-action remake that does nothing as well. It's obvious that these stories and characters do better in animation because they seem out of place in live action.

I had fun in the first half and found myself bored with the second half. Jack Quaid is fun and carries this from 2.5 stars to 3 stars.

    The action and production design are also better than expected and increase tension in nearly…

    Pinocchio

    ★½

    Pinocchio (2022) feels like a forced film that fails to derive any joy from its original source, typical of these Disney live-action remakes. The first 15 minutes I thought were charming and I was prepared for a charming and heartwarming film. The remaining first act and the second/third acts really shot through so many plot elements that ALL got dropped. There's no resolution to anything in this story and it's frustrating to see all these random occurrences mean nothing. The…
