The tale is already more than known. It frightened the princess, naive, innocent and very beautiful it is wronged by a wicked witch.

Personal Comment:

Although it is not really graphic in its violence, Snow White and the Hunter has some impact images, powered by the interpretation of its cast. Charlize Theron, Queen Ravenna, delivery with intensity to the role, bringing the aura of malignancy of the character, who also won here last a well-developed. Kristen Stewart, Snow White, Princess warrant to force a non-existent in any other movie based on history, quality of leadership, strength, but without losing their femininity or become a superhero.
