Sam Claflin (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) joins the cast as the prince long enchanted by Snow White's beauty and power.
Awesome! This is definitely a close second to The Hunger Games for me, which was my favorite for the year so far. I really enjoyed every minute of this movie. To quote one of my movie buddies, she said: "The special effects were out of the world." I read this morning that there is already a sequel on in the works and I am already excited about seeing it. We were discussing after the movie that we didn't really like the ending because it leaves you hanging. Now it makes perfect sense. I was very impressed with how they worked in all the factors of the original fairy tale and turned it into such an interesting story.
This is not a movie for kids, which can be deceiving with a name such as Snow White but this is definitely the adult version. If you want to see a kid version of Snow White, see Mirror Mirror. I recommend this movie as a must see for anyone over the age of 15.
