    Snow White

    ★★

    No surprises here... Snow White is visually vibrant and energetic, but oh my god is it substantially underwhelming.

    It's both narratively and thematically repetitive. It sure will be a hit for a younger demographic. It just irks me how Disney and the executives behind this just let it be faced with sooo many scrutiny because of its alleged (and I hate to use this word unironically) woke-ness. As a matter of fact, this is very by-the-book and not at all…

    Compared to its predecessors, it shines out as…

    The School for Good and Evil

    ★★★★

    No, you are not evil.
    You're just human

    Yeah I had so MUCH fun! The School for Good and Evil is a wonderfully executed fantasy film that tells a story about the importance of morals and integrity, and the strength of friendship; it's a trope that's been done countless of times before, but this film carries it out in ways where it isn't overly cheesy and doesn't feel forced.

    I haven't read the books, so I have no prior knowledge…
