Mirror Mirror (2012)

In this refreshing spin on the classic "Snow White" fairy tale, Lily Collins shows flashes of Jennifer Love Hewitt and Winona Ryder and is cutely fitting for the lead role. The fantasy atmosphere is a delightful touch. This way, the film avoids being dreary and flows well. The costumes are dazzlingly bursting with rich color and the sets are lovely. Julia Roberts compliments the picture in what is more of a backstage role, which opens the gates for great humor, creative props and lively dialogue. The shining stars of this picture are the 7 dwarves. Their exchanges are merry, solemn and yet sympathetic. Rather than being a rehash, this film sparkles with charm that the whole family will enjoy.
