3. Snow White and the Huntsman
Snow White and the Huntsman looked like it could have generated something positive, but I should have known better. The twist on the familiar tale's plot worked alright, but in a post-Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland terrain, it was obvious to see that this film was going to rely on every cliché inherent to this type of motion picture. Spoilers ahead, in case anyone cares: the moment the Huntsman leaned in to kiss Snow White after the "apple biting incident" to wake her, I knew that I walked into a movie meant to appeal to the tweens that watched Twilight (hence Kristen Stewart as title character). A forced, unneeded, and not even the least bit creative romance that just shattered the entire film with its predictability and uselessness. Honestly, though, aside from that annoying and unnecessarily Hollywood moment, I could have tolerated this film and may have even set out to watch it again. But that's not the case at all, given that it ultimately succumbed to the genre stereotypes. There could have been some hope for me checking this out twice, but knowing how the plot is geared, I could care less.
