Mirror Mirror knows exactly what it is, but did the Public and Media know that when they started pitting it against "that other Snow White Movie" which hits theatres this June? Retelling the classic Brothers Grimm Fairy Tale and taking a few comedic liberties with it, Director Tarsem Singh (The Immortals, The Cell) has a bit of fun with it all and so should you.
The Comedy is told from the perspective of The Evil Queen (Julia Roberts) who controls an impoverished Kingdom, while at once obsessively being aware of her own vanity and age, driving her at all costs to ensure that she remains fairest of all. Threatened by porcelain-skinned Beauty Snow White (Lily Collins), the stakes are increased significantly after the 18-year-old attracts the attention of handsome Prince Alcott (Armie Hammer) whom The Evil Queen also has her eyes set-on as a potential Husband; a Marriage between herself and Prince Alcott would bring her riches, saving her destitute Kingdom also.
Brighton (Nathan Lane) - The Queen's Assistant - is assigned the task of murdering Snow White and after failing to do so, she escapes into the Forest where she is taken-in by a team of seven pint-sized Rebels who trainer her to become The Evil Queen's most powerful Opponent yet. Will The Evil Queen prevail in ridding-of Snow White and who will Prince Alcott once again cross paths with Snow White, his true love, after she goes missing?
