Mirror Mirror **

Tarsem Singh directed this Comedy. Watch Preview. Cast: Lily Collins, Julia Roberts, Armie Hammer, Nathan Lane, Robert Emms, Mare Winningham, Michael Lerner, Mark Povinelli, Jordan Prentice, Danny Woodburn, Sebastian Saraceno, Ronald Lee Clark, Martin Klebba, Joey Gnoffo, Sean Bean. Rated PG for some fantasy action and mild rude humor. Running time is one hour and forty-six minutes.

A fresh and funny retelling of the Snow White legend featuring the usual cast of characters: Snow White (Collins), the handsome Prince (Hammer) and the wicked Queen (Roberts).

This is an expensive looking film with a very good cast but with a plot only mildly amusing. This type of  humor is hard to maintain and while there are numerous chuckles throughout my main thought when exiting was, "I wonder who they made this for?" It isn't nearly funny enough to become a mass audience adult hit. Teen girls will probably appreciate the romance angle but other than that group, I'm hard pressed to think who I could recommend this to. If this does look appealing to you I wouldn't dally. This isn't going to be around long.

There are additional scenes played during the initial credits but when those cease there are no further scenes. A large screen will show off the special effects but isn't  necessary otherwise. Theatres/Times.
