Together, they strive to survive the Queen's relentless pursuit and aspire to take back the kingdom.… Expand
You can find true entertainment from the original Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs from 1937 made by Walt Disney himself! This 2025 remake version does not follow up to the original classic and has a contrast plot that does not even match any wits of the said original. Racheal Zegler has made things worse with her offensive comments regarding the original masterpiece and has sparked controversy among fans. On the day of its theatrical release I will be watching the original 1937 which I have the most respect for. This 2025 version I do not and will not have that respect for! So long Disney Today! As said by the right wing side of the USA, “Go woke, Go Broke”.… Expand

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/snow-white-review/
"Snow White may not be the remake that changes many people's negative perception of Disney's live-action trend, but the truth is that Marc Webb and Erin Cressida Wilson manage to offer a more fascinating version of the classic tale.
At the center of it all, Rachel Zegler shines with a magnetic performance, elevating the main character to new heights of complexity and charm. Her enchanting expressiveness and outstanding vocal talent make this Snow White one of the most notable protagonists of the modern live-action era.
With a stronger, thematically richer script, a convincing romance, exciting new songs, and an updated vision that respects the essence of the classic, this remake proves that there's room to revisit old stories and make them even more tantalizing."

Don't bother with this sad woke version of an amazing classic! Rachel Ziegler has single handedly tanked this film with her classless and styleless performance. I would normally say to save your money, but her personal comments about the original film, its characters, and the plot have just ruined this film for me! I know I'm not alone. Boycott this one, if nothing more than to show Disney that this type of behavior from the lead in a major production will not be tolerated! Sorry Disney! Until you reign in you actress, you won't get another penny of my money! Go woke, go broke!… Expand

Ouch! Now this was always going to be a difficult story to imaginatively reimagine, and I do wonder just who Disney thought this was for as it quite radically alters the timeless fairy tale and augments it with some remarkably unremarkable power ballads and set piece choreography that wouldn’t have looked out of place at a barn dance. This iteration of the story pretty much abandons the fantasy elements of the original one and tells us of a wicked queen who has tricked her way onto the throne and turned the princess “Snow White” (Rachel Zegler) into something more akin to a royal “Cinderella”. Luckily for her, she encounters the enthusiastic bandit “Jonathan” (Andrew Burnap) who has broken into the palace to pinch some spuds, and next thing they are both trying to stay one step ahead of the Queen (Gal Gadot) who is narked by her mirror telling her she’s just plain ugly so she wants them deceased! It does swing by the brothers Grimm every now and again, and there are seven singing dwarves to “work the whole day long”, but even they can’t breathe much life into this surprisingly mundane exercise in superb technical creativity but otherwise lacklustre amateur stage theatricals. The unmistakably familiar score from Messrs. Pasek and Paul keeps threatening to break into “You Will Be Found” from “Dear Evan Hansen” and aside from, perhaps, “Waiting on a Wish” the soundtrack - like the whole thing - is disappointingly forgettable as it avoids every potential hint of menace progressing through a fondue of gloop towards it’s conclusion. Thank heavens for “Grumpy” (Martin Kleppa) who is probably the only one on-screen in synch with those of us watching. If you do want to see it then cinema is definitely best. This will look and sound bland and forgettable on the telly, but will fit excellently with the other banal recent additions to Disney+.… Expand

Rachel Zegler shines as Snow White. She delivered a great performance both emotionally and vocally. She is not the problem like a lot of people are making her out to be. Gal Gadot is the real issue with this film. Her acting and singing is atrocious. It’s beyond me how she made it this far in Hollywood, let alone bagged this role. I think she does some type of witchcraft on the casting directors because I refuse to believe they think she’s a talented actress. Her inclusion is even worse than the CGI dwarves which I thought looked bad from the trailers but I actually grew to like them as I watched the movie, especially Dopey. He was my favourite character in the film. Overall, it was a decent film. It was only when Gal Gadot was on screen, I just sat there and cringed. There’s so many actresses that could’ve done it better.… Expand

<em>'Snow White'</em> is a remake worth its salt. Disney (deservedly) have a reputation for churning out remake after remake, many of which aren't necessary whatsoever. A "reimagining" of a 1937 movie 88 years later via a different form is, in my opinion, a perfectly logical choice of flick to redo.
For my money, this successfully improves upon <em>'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs'</em>. Don't get me wrong, the original is an undeniable classic and has certain things going for it - e.g. the beautiful animation - but judging them solely as movies, this has more substance to it.
I honestly don't hold any negatives for it, that isn't me saying it's a perfect film or anything close but I had a very nice time seeing it; I'd imagine it'll age well in the future, particularly for families that grow up with it. Visually, the movie looks vibrant; really colourful.
The musicial numbers are good too, I especially dug new song "Waiting on a Wish". Looking at their work, I do like music by Pasek and Paul. I love the soundtrack to <em>'The Greatest Showman'</em> and did enjoy what they did for <em>'Aladdin'</em>; namely "Speechless".
As for the cast, Rachel Zegler works as lead. I admit I had heard negative murmurs online about Zegler in the last few years back when I used Twitter properly, but in recent times I've seen some interviews and she seems cool (if clumsy?). I've watched her in a few films now and I rate her.
I think Gal Gadot's Evil Queen is the weakest part, though only when compared to the rest. Gadot's performance is good, I was particularly impressed with her in terms of the music pieces. It's more so that anytime the character appears, I wasn't as interested as with SW & Co.
Andrew Burnap is solid in the usual love interest sorta role. I have found the dudes in these other remakes from this company to be quite forgettable, even whilst viewing, but Burnap stood out a little more for me. Of those away from the aforementioned, Patrick Page suits his bit.
The Seven Dwarfs, to me, looked great. I do believe that having actual humans in the role would've been better, though the effects used for those characters here looked pleasant and the voice actors give more than satisfactory showings; albeit with no overt standout performer.
As alluded to above, I did hear about the many issues surrounding this release; admittedly without any deep detail. Quite the mess, it hit every branch of the way down it appears. Looking at IMDb, you think it's been review bombed by any chance? Lol. I thought IMDb fought against that sort of thing?
Anyway, I really typed up nine paragraphs about this movie, huh. Well I did very much enjoy it, so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯… Expand

The thing about "Snow" is it might look pretty but it might just be covering a dog turd.
Case in question Disney's contemporisation of "Snow White". The story of a sand paper abrasive, whiny character and a gas lighted wicked Queen, who really is "the fairest of them all". In fact, she's hotter than a Sydney pavement, on a summer's day.
Then we have the dwarves who are no longer quaint dwarvish people. No they are scary CGI little creatures, who look like something cooked up in Frankenstein's laboratory.
To top off the pervading sense of misery, we have a story that actually outwoke's "wokeness". Not an easy thing to do.
The only upside is Rachel Zegler's singing. Yeah, the girl can "really" carry a tune. That said, nothings going to carry this cinematic monstrosity, across the finish line.
In summary, take a look if you dare but don't say I didn't warn you first.… Expand
The supporting elements elevate the film just as much. The production design and visuals are absolutely stunning, bringing the fairy-tale world to life with rich colors, elegant costumes, and a slightly darker, storybook atmosphere that feels magical without losing realism. The musical numbers are memorable and emotionally driven, enhancing the story rather than interrupting it. Combined with strong direction and a thoughtful modernization of the classic themes, Snow White feels both timeless and fresh—proof that this story still has plenty of magic left to give. ✨🍎… Expand

Rachel Zegler’s performance truly anchors *Snow White (2025)*, especially through her heartfelt “I Want” song, **“Waiting on a Wish.”** The song perfectly captures Snow White’s longing, vulnerability, and quiet strength, and Zegler delivers it with stunning emotional honesty. Her vocals are clear, powerful, and filled with yearning, making the moment feel intimate rather than grand for the sake of spectacle. “Waiting on a Wish” doesn’t just introduce Snow White—it defines her inner conflict and sets the emotional tone for the entire film. It’s a beautifully performed, unforgettable musical moment that stays with you long after the credits roll. 🍎✨… Expand

The songs are a standout element of _Snow White_, with **“Waiting on a Wish”** shining brightest. As the film’s emotional centerpiece, the song beautifully expresses Snow White’s hopes, doubts, and longing, making it instantly memorable. Its melody is gentle yet powerful, and the lyrics feel sincere and character-driven rather than generic. The rest of the soundtrack supports the story just as well, but “Waiting on a Wish” lingers long after the film ends—an unforgettable “I Want” song that captures the heart of the movie.… Expand
