Disney’s Snow White remake debuts with soft Rotten Tomatoes rating after mixed reviews
Disney’s real-life adaptation of the classic tale, Snow White, has sparked diverse opinions, and this is evident in its rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
In the movie, Rachel Zegler plays the leading role as Snow White. The story unfolds with Snow White seeking shelter in a woodland home to evade her wicked stepmother, portrayed by Gal Gadot.
The Queen aims to be recognized as the most beautiful in the kingdom, but Snow White’s charm challenges this position. Determined to preserve her status, the Queen is willing to take drastic measures to eliminate Snow White from the scene.

Notably, its predecessor, 101 Dalmations, scored 39%.
This is what critics are saying about Disney’s latest film…
Digital Spy
Although Zegler’s portrayal was impressive, even during the extended finale that’s typical of Disney remakes, the movie Snow White struggles to find its unique identity. It aspires to be distinctive but lacks the boldness necessary to truly stand out. It aims to be the most beautiful, but unfortunately, it falls short once again as another underwhelming retelling.
Rolling Stone
Although this version of ‘Snow White’ isn’t the most poorly done live-action remake of an animated classic, it certainly comes close to being the most forgettable. Despite its merit as a bedtime tale, it has a tendency to make viewers drowsy.
IndieWire
Although it may not flow perfectly, it’s much more enjoyable than one might expect. This lively and endearing reinterpretation of traditional content is commendable for its skillful blend of modern enhancements and reverence for the past.
RogerEbert.com
Certain aspects of this movie are stronger than others, however, none of it possesses the charm and creativity found in an animated film. To put it mildly, this “Snow White” doesn’t quite stand out among the rest; it’s merely average.
New York Post
This timeless animated masterpiece, a revolutionary milestone in its genre, was transformed into a lifeless, forgettable live-action adaptation that swiftly fades from memory after viewing.”
Or more casually:
“The original groundbreaking animation, which has stood the test of time, got turned into another dull and cringe-worthy live-action version that you forget as soon as it’s over.
AV Club
The movie presents an unusual perspective, where its success was tied not only to its aesthetic grace but also its visual appeal. However, despite the complexity, the skilled performances, notably from the radiant singer Rachel Zegler, maintain a clear thread of talent throughout.
The Hollywood Reporter
If it seems like a typical portrayal of female empowerment commonly found in modern reimaginings of fairy tales, that’s largely accurate. However, Zegler delivers it with genuine passion and sincerity.
Snow White is in cinemas now.
