Viewing Notes

I understand some of wolverinefactor’s issues with the film, but given that I’m not familiar with the original material other than the fairy tales, I’m looking at this more from just having gone to see it blind.  I think I’ve only seen the TV trailers for it as well so other than the cast I had very few expectations out of this.  Loved the music, the pacing and most of the actors in this.  Some great cinematography and the way they used effects really helped set the tone for the film.
