Snow White And The Huntsman is a lot of fun, as well as apparently the first film influenced by the director playing Warhammer as a kid.
It's an object lesson in re-genre-ising a story, in this case into big fantasy action with a lot of mud. Looks great throughout, has its share of laughs. Could have expanded or cut a few roles but nobody's perfect. We went in with moderate expectations and were pleasantly surprised. I look forward to seeing what the director does next. (He also played 40k...)
Trailers: lots of the BBC's young genre stars in a movie about running, Step Up 4 which seems to be about anticapitalism, and the quite remarkable Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter.
