A new remake of the classic fairy tale “Snow White” has been met with scathing reviews from kids and parents alike. The film, which features a non-white actress in the lead role, has been criticized for its woke portrayal and has been dubbed a “Frankenstein mess” by one critic.
The movie’s reception is largely driven by audience feedback on Rotten Tomatoes, with an average rating of 46% based on over 18 hours of reviews. One parent who took their child to see the film admitted that the kid was more interested in the nachos and chili at the concession stand than the actual movie.
Many have panned the remake, with some calling it “the worst adaptation” they’ve ever seen. Others have criticized the film’s decision to make Snow White a person of color, saying it’s an “easy win” that Disney should not have attempted. The film’s star, Rachel Zegler, has also been accused of being “insufferable” in her role.
Despite its poor reception, some critics have defended the remake, with Variety, Entertainment Weekly, and The New York Times all praising the film. However, these criticisms are largely outnumbered by the negative feedback from audiences who claim the movie is “awful,” “terrible,” and “a waste of time.”
The new “Snow White” remake has sparked a heated debate about diversity in Hollywood and whether studios should prioritize representation over nostalgic appeal. With Disney set to lose millions on this film, it’s clear that the remake was a risk that did not pay off.
The film’s poor reception is also being seen as a symptom of a larger problem with Hollywood’s approach to adapting classic stories for modern audiences. As one critic noted, “Disney just refuses to learn from their mistakes” and continues to churn out films that appeal to a small segment of the population.
