Review of Mirror Mirror (2012) by Kaoru K — 17 Oct 2014

One of two Snow White films to come out in 2012. This version is the more fairytale-like version. The costumes and sets are gorgeous. Performance wise, Lily Collins is good as Snow White and Nathan Lane is a standout as the Evil Queen's poor henchman, Brighton.

Julia Roberts certainly highlights the Queen's vanity and lack of empathy, but makes her look more like a spoiled 40-year-old brat than a force of evil. Armie Hammer as the prince is also a bit too goofy at times.

However, at the end, there is a great cameo by a certain Lord Of The Rings actor. 6/10.
