Snow White and the Huntsman was captivating to
watch just for the way it looked. The story wasn't brilliant and some
of the acting sucked, but the visuals made it worth seeing.
I don't think The Huntsman actually had a big enough role to be in the title with Snow White. More aptly, it should've been "The Queen and Snow White." But that doesn't have quite the same ring to it. I was kind of interested in this one, but I don't think I would've followed up on it if I hadn't seen Roeper's review. I don't remember what he said anymore, but I decided it was okay enough to watch.
I was mostly interested in the visual aspect, and that's the
part that paid off. Visually, it's a great movie. A feast for the eyes, if you
will. I loved the cinematography, the costumes, the landscapes, the sets, all
of it. It didn't all work; some of the camerawork seemed a little pretentious.
But for the most part, it was really interesting to watch. I wish I had seen it
at the theater.
Kristen Stewart sucked, though. I mean, she's just terrible.
She doesn't act. She isn't pretty. Her eyes don't even have a color. It's
bizarre. I don't understand why anyone would want to cast her in anything.
