Snow White & The Huntsman - Anmeldelser

Snow White and the Huntsman' er på alle de rigtige måder et eventyrligt bud på en gedigen actionfilm for piger og drenge af alle aldre.

The greatest innovation Snow White And The Huntsman brings to its “dark retelling” of the Snow White fairy tale is suggesting that its evil-queen antagonist (played by Charlize Theron) has a name, a past, and a purpose.

This film is a wonderment, urged along by a full-throated romantic score.

...it is extremely pleasurable to watch, and shows every sign of having been extremely pleasurable to make.

A strong visual style tussles with flaccid storytelling in this ambitious retelling of Grimm.

Charlize Theron lyckas väcka både fasa och sympati. Hennes konversationer med spegeln förmedlar en rent magnetisk narcissism.

Ett effektfullt äventyr.

Snehvide fægter med tyre i sprudlende stumfilmversion af Grimm-eventyret, hvor stedmoren er ren dominatrix og dværgene milevidt fra Disneys milde gnomer.

...feels modern, with a style of visual storytelling that owes a lot to music videos and the European New Wave cinema of the ’50s and ’60s. Berger also shows a dark wit and a faith in old-fashioned melodrama...

...in its most illuminated stretches, [it] finds the sweet spot between folklore's elemental urges and the hard-fought, pragmatic women-centrism of contemporary cinematic heroism.

...snyggt och underhållande är det, och i jämförelse med sin nämnda filmrival så är den absolut den sevärd av de två.
