Old fashioned family friendly wholesomeness. Overloaded with feel good and nice!
Updated 27/03/25: I went to see this again twice in 4DX, because itโs such a lovely film. It makes you feel like a kid again.
I was wrong thinking they didnโt need to remake this. Iโm actually really glad it exists.
For those who want to know if children will love it? They definitely will.
The children in both screenings were no trouble. Didnโt talk much, but did react to the cute CGI animals.
They also didnโt seem to be scared of the witch like I thought they would be.
In the first showing a 5 or 6 year old boy and girl ran down the stairs and started dancing in front of the screen along with the dancers in the wedding scene. And their 11 year old brother was still sitting in the attentively watching comfortably position.
In the next showing another little boy ran down the stairs in the middle of the very romantic scene when Snow White and the bandit rebel leader Prince Charming, sing to each other A Hand Meets A Hand, and tried to catch the bubbles falling down from the ceiling. Then like a good kid went back to his seat without having to be told. I noticed he liked the hedgehog.
And his father? During a smoky Evil Queen scene, decided that he need the bathroomโฆ but in not so much of a hurry that when the smoke machines suddenly went offโฆ he decide to turn around, quickly run up a couple of steps, immerse himself in it, and then go to the bathroomโฆ
This film makes a kid of us all.
I hope that helps.

โIf there's a world where you wake me
Promise to wake me with a kiss"
A lovely simple, sweet, romantic, and VERY family friendly movie with no innuendos for adults, nothing bad in it, just nice old fashioned wholesomeness for kids. Good morals, adorable dwarfs, and so many cute CGI animals. Itโs beautiful to look at. A loving homage to the original.
Iโve never seen her films before but Rachael Zegler oozes loveliness in this. In fact the whole movie does.
She and the man who is her Prince, are very charming to watch. Gal Gadot looked exactly like the Evil Queen. It suited her. She also knew how to move her body well.
Small children though, may be a little scared of the witch, but will probably ooo and ahh at the cute CGI Deers, Doves, Blue Birds, Butterflies, Squirrels, Rabbits, Hares, Badgers, Mice, and Hedgehog.
It's an excellent remake of a beloved and perfect original.
