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.

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

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

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

Ett effektfullt äventyr.

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.

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