An average movie

To be honest, I wasn't expecting much from this flick but since there was a really nice cast involved, I thought I might as well check it out anyway. Well, eventually, I'm not surprised at all that it turned out to be a flop at the box-office. Indeed, the damned thing turned out to be a perfect example of why some sequels are just seriously misguided. In fact, the whole thing actually started as a prequel to 'Snow White and the Huntsman', but, after about 20 minutes, it suddenly became a sequel and this switch was just really awkward. In this case, why didn't they bring back Kristen Stewart to shoot at least a cameo? To make things worse, the whole thing was just really derivative with the Ice queen obviously inspired by 'Frozen' and the magic mirror who worked pretty much exactly like the ring in 'The Lord of the Rings'. At least, the whole thing looked decent enough and it is not very often that you get to see 3 amazing actresses like Charlize Theron, Emily Blunt and Jessica Chastain all together in the same movie. It's just too bad they got involved in such a rather average blockbuster like this one. Anyway, to conclude, I think I was rather generous with my rating here but I guess the damned thing was still watchable though.
