Eric let me pick the movie this weekend. When he heard my choice, 'Snow White and The Huntsman', he quickly vetoed it but then decided I could go ahead and pick since I had requested the date night. This may have been an error on his part. Yes, yes, I know it didn't get great reviews on Rotten Tomatoes but it's one of those movies where the difference in the ratings of critics vs. real people was huge. I thought SURELY with that Thor guy and Charlize Theron (not to mention a handful of other well known actors) it had to be pretty good! Hmmmmm....
Spoilers!! It IS pretty good. But, it's not as great as it wanted itself to be. I have much praise for Charlize Theron. I LOVE her as an evil queen. There were so many little moments that made me really enjoy her evilness. She was a big hit and the special effects they used for her scenes were really cool.
I also really liked Thor the Huntsman. He had me convinced he had never seen a big hammer or crossed through the universe to Earth to save it. It would have been nice if he had LOOKED a little different than Thor but, I liked him better than that lame William guy. Sorry, William, you waited too long to save her. Now you are 'just friends'.
BUT, I have some issues.
Mr. SWATH Director,
Can I just ask you, honestly, did you see the Twilight movies before casting Kristen Stewart? I want to let you in on something. Um, this is awkward but, Kristen has already done some of these scenes. And,well, in fact, she is kinda famous for them already. So, when I saw them in YOUR movie it just made me think of Twilight. So, I'm just saying you should have picked, well, ANY OTHER ACTRESS!
My supporting evidence? Please see the following four pictures below: First we have Kristen dead in your movie- SWATH, and Kristen dead in Breaking Dawn, part 1. 
Then, we have Kristen cliff jumping in your movie, and Kristen cliff jumping in New Moon. 
See what I'm saying, man? It's kinda sad. While I have your ear, I noticed in the movie they said that Snow White had 'come of age'. Oh, were we supposed to think Kristen was like 16 or 18 in this movie? Because, she has some crow's feet lines around her eyes and smile lines on her face and well, just doesn't really look that age (honestly, Kristen smokes dude, it ages people, just FYI). In some scenes Charlize looks younger than Kristen. That was confusing.
I HATE to be a pain, but I have just ONE more thing. Snow white skin? Yeah, she is kinda olive skinned. I hate to bring up Twilight again but they have SEVERAL examples of how to do the snow white skin I think you may have wanted. You can rent these movies since it looks like you haven't seen them. And you don't have to add the sparkles (that's just a Cullen thing). Just sayin'
Sincerely, Someone who is just here to help :)
