I bet you thought we wouldn’t have a review of Snow White and the Huntsman this week, didn’t you? Well, so did we, but it turns out Kelly saw the flick and is more than happy to talk about it (with a slightly different take than Doc Rotten’s review). We also continue our Highlander conversation from last week before moving on to discussions of the Les Miserables trailer, the latest... 

Snow White and the Huntsman is an exhilarating, visually splendid and surprisingly mature adaptation of the Snow White fairy tale. The film is rich in tone with amazing special effect and esquisite locations, from the fabled mirror on the wall to the castles and forests to the costumes and creatures. Absolutely stunning.

Even if I loved the first movie, I don’t think I’d be ready to endure that experience,... 

I’d heard from many of my colleagues that Adventureland was grossly mis-represented in the marketing for the movie. Instead of a sophomoric raunch comedy, the movie is more of a coming of age story, with a decent emotional core to it. I didn’t realize the weight of that until I sat down to watch the movie myself and realized just how right those other critics were. Do not approach this movie expecting...
