Mirror Mirror [Review]
The classic fairy tale of Snow White has two cinematic adaptations this year, as well as the recent Once Upon a Time television series on ABC. That’s a lot of Snow White to go around. Fortunately, each one has their own unique take on the character. In the case of the recent release, Mirror Mirror, that take is a more traditional one, taking a lighthearted approach to the story with only a few minor...
