The uproar surrounding Disney’s latest live-action adaptation of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is not only well-deserved, but it fails to fully capture just how disastrously flawed the film truly is.
Headlined by a lackluster performance from Rachel Zegler as Snow White and an uninspired portrayal of the Evil Queen by Gal Gadot, this remake offers an experience that’s as painful as bamboo splinters under your fingernails. The film’s attempt to address the original animated classic’s political insensitivities is clumsy at best, but the real issues run deeper.
At its core, this remake is one of the ugliest films I’ve ever seen. With a visual style that feels more like a migraine caused by artificial intelligence, it is drenched in over-sentimental clichés that make you wish the huntsman would simply end the suffering. This film seems crafted by executives focused solely on profit, with no regard for artistic integrity or even the slightest sense of creativity.
